I've seen that $SLB Ltd(SLB)$ and $NVIDIA(NVDA)$ have been collaborating since 2008, focusing on creating AI infrastructure and domain-specific models for the energy sector. They are now expanding this partnership. The firms will concentrate on three main areas: building infrastructure for AI factories, developing generative AI models tailored for energy applications, and ensuring $SLB Ltd(SLB)$ 's digital platforms can manage massive data volumes more efficiently. This work involves integrating $NVIDIA(NVDA)$ 's AI software, such as Omniverse and Nemotron models, with
$NVIDIA(NVDA)$ 's accelerated computing and simulation technologies, along with $ABB Ltd(ABB)$ 's robotics, have removed the last barriers to making industrial and physical AI a reality at a global scale by closing the sim-to-real gap.
I note that $Meta Platforms, Inc.(META)$ will deploy 6 gigawatts of $Advanced Micro Devices(AMD)$ -based data centre capacity, covering the MI450 accelerator and subsequent generations. The deal is valued at tens of billions of dollars, with reports indicating it could reach up to $60 billion in the medium term. As part of the agreement, $Advanced Micro Devices(AMD)$ is issuing $Meta Platforms, Inc.(META)$ performance-based warrants to acquire 160 million shares of common stock (roughly 10% of the company); these warrants vest in tranches, with final tranches tied to milestones including
The DOW is above 50k, which isn't bad considering stimulus is being removed via government spending cuts. I'm hoping $NVIDIA(NVDA)$ runs up ahead of earnings. Long term player.
