How a once-tiny research lab helped Nvidia become a $4 trillion-dollar company
When Bill Dally joined Nvidia’s research lab in 2009, it employed only about a dozen people and was focused on ray tracing, a rendering technique used in computer graphics. That once-small research lab now employs more than 400 people, who have helped transform Nvidia from a video game GPU startup in the nineties to a $4 trillion-dollar company fueling the artificial intelligence boom. Now, the company’s research lab has its sights set on developing the tech needed to power robotics and AI.
