At NVIDIA GTC 2024, CEO Jensen Huang, while announcing their ‘very big GPU’, Blackwell, sort of bid adieu to the ‘good old days of Moore’s law’.
Reflecting on the rapid advancement in computing power, Huang said that in just eight years, NVIDIA has increased computational capacity by a thousandfold, a progress that far exceeds the benchmarks set during the heyday of Moore's Law. However, he rued that even after this remarkable growth, the industry's accelerating demands are far from being met.
“In the past eight years, we've increased computation by 1000 times, and we have two more years to go. So that puts it into perspective [the fact that] the rate at which we're advancing computing is insane. And it's still not fast enough,” said Huang.
