How Nvidia Came to Own AI Compute: From CUDA to the H100 Shortage
Nvidia’s AI-computing position began with CUDA in 2006, which made GPUs programmable for general-purpose parallel computing. AlexNet’s 2012 ImageNet result showed that a deep neural network could be trained effectively with GPUs, and Nvidia later built Tensor Cores and data-center products such as the V100 and A100 around AI workloads.
