Nvidia Wants in on the Robotaxi Race

Nvidia is in talks to invest $500 million in the London-based self-driving car startup Wayve Technologies. Nvidia’s interest comes as the sci-fi dream of driverless cars inches closer to reality. Alphabet’s Waymo robotaxis already roam several U.S. cities, Tesla is testing its own service in Austin, and Amazon’s Zoox taxis—which have no steering wheels or pedals—just started offering rides in Las Vegas this month. The tech for driverless cars is accelerating so quickly that Uber CEO Dara Khosr

Don’t Get Too Excited for That Nvidia and Intel Chip Just Yet

What’s the point of competition anymore? Nvidia may still be trying to make its own CPUs. Intel could have beefed up its Arc GPUs around the corner. But now the two U.S.-based chipmakers plan to make SoCs, or system-on-chips, combining each company’s specialty. While we’re all curious about what this means for the future of PCs, you’ll need to wait a good long while to see what form the new chips from the new Wonder Twins will take. Nvidia is effectively netting a $5 billion stake in Intel, a d

Intel says Arc GPUs will live on after Nvidia deal

In the future, Intel will make CPUs with Nvidia graphics inside — among other things , Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang confirmed today that Nvidia will contribute “GPU chiplets” that Intel can place alongside its x86 CPU cores instead of the Arc integrated graphics it develops in-house today. But, at least for now, Intel says that doesn’t mean Intel’s own graphics are going away. “We’re not discussing specific roadmaps at this time, but the collaboration is complementary to Intel’s roadmap and Intel wi

Huawei announces new AI infrastructure as Nvidia gets locked out of China

Nvidia Just Suffered a Huge Blow in China

For years, the Chinese tech industry has been dependent on the US and its allies for the advanced semiconductors — colloquially known as "chips" — that undergird the AI industry. As the "AI race" has heated up to a fever pitch, chips have become its chief commodity — and bottleneck, as companies compete to build out the infrastructure they believe will run a multi-trillion dollar market. At the moment, the undisputed leader in AI chips is Nvidia, which has rocketed it from modestly-sized gamin

Slow social media

Slow social media 16 Sep, 2025 People often assume that I hate social media. And they'd be forgiven for believing that, since I am overtly critical of current social media platforms and the effects they have on individuals and society; and deleted all of my social media accounts back in 2019. However, the underlying concept of social media is something I resonate with: Stay connected with the people you care about. It's just that the current form of social media is bastardised, and not socia
