NVIDIA Blackwell at GTC 2024 — The Next Era of GPU Computing

Published:

My experience at NVIDIA GTC 2024 in San José, covering the unveiling of the NVIDIA Blackwell architecture — a generational leap in GPU computing for AI training, inference, and scientific simulation.

Highlights from GTC 2024

  • Blackwell Architecture — Massive improvements in AI training throughput and inference efficiency
  • Physical AI — NVIDIA’s push into embodied AI, robotics, and digital twins
  • Project GR00T — Foundation model for humanoid robots
  • Jetson Thor — Next-generation edge AI platform for robotics

GTC 2024 was a pivotal moment — being in the room for Jensen Huang’s keynote and seeing the roadmap for Physical AI convinced me that this was the future I wanted to build. Within a year, I joined NVIDIA to do exactly that.
