Additionally, consulting powerhouses like Accenture, Deloitte, Quantiphi, and SoftServe are integrating Nvidia’s tools to help clients in healthcare, manufacturing, telecommunications, financial services, and retail build custom AI agents and copilots.
Prominent data platforms such as Cadence, Cloudera, and Google Cloud are also advancing their capabilities by incorporating Nvidia NIM technology.
"AI is reshaping global industries and driving transformation," said Jensen Huang, CEO of Nvidia. "Through partnerships with U.S. companies, universities, and government entities, Nvidia facilitates AI adoption to enhance productivity and stimulate economic growth."
New NeMo microservices—including NeMo Customizer, Evaluator, and Guardrails—allow developers to effortlessly curate data at scale, customize models, and manage responses in alignment with business goals. Custom NIM microservices can be seamlessly deployed across any GPU-optimized cloud, data center, or workstation.
Lowe’s is exploring Nvidia NIM and NeMo microservices to enhance both customer experiences and employee productivity, using NeMo Guardrails to bolster the safety of its generative AI solutions.
Nvidia and SETI: A New Era in Astronomy
Nvidia is also collaborating with the SETI Institute to expedite radio data analysis. Researchers at SETI are employing Nvidia technology for the first real-time AI search for fast radio bursts that could indicate extraterrestrial life. Their innovative approach will enhance the understanding of rare astronomical phenomena by utilizing accelerated computing on Nvidia Holoscan and IGX platforms.
Andrew Siemion, the Bernard M. Oliver Chair for SETI, emphasized the transformative potential of this technology in analyzing streaming astronomical data for unprecedented discoveries.
Pittsburgh's AI Advancements with Nvidia
Nvidia is partnering with Carnegie Mellon University and the University of Pittsburgh to establish joint technology centers aimed at fostering innovation and public-private collaboration in AI. This initiative, unveiled at the Nvidia AI Summit, will serve as a bridge between academia, industry, and public-sector organizations to spur technological advancements.
The new Nvidia AI Tech Community will consist of two centers: one at CMU focusing on Robotics and AI, and another at the University of Pittsburgh dedicated to AI and Intelligent Systems, particularly in health sciences.
CMU, recognized as the nation’s top AI university, and the University of Pittsburgh, a leading R1 research university, will leverage Nvidia's resources, including DGX for AI training and Omniverse for simulation.
AI in Healthcare: Transforming Research to Clinical Applications
The U.S. healthcare system is embracing AI agents to integrate AI into clinical and research settings. Technologies showcased at the Summit, including Nvidia NIM, facilitate the deployment of powerful AI models designed to enhance medical image analysis, expedite therapeutic development, and streamline data extraction from complex PDF databases.
Researchers at the National Cancer Institute utilize AI models developed with Nvidia MonAI for 3D CT image segmentation and annotation, and NIH’s NCATS employs NIM Agent Blueprints for generative AI-assisted virtual drug screening.
Leveraging Nvidia's technology, medical researchers can efficiently adapt optimized AI models to suit their needs, enhancing research capabilities and reducing time to insights.
Enhancing Cybersecurity with Nvidia Technology
Nvidia is advancing cybersecurity through its NIM Agent Blueprint for container security, enabling enterprises to create secure AI systems using open-source software. With AI tools, organizations can detect threats in real-time and automate routine security tasks, allowing human analysts to focus on more complex challenges.
Deloitte is among the first to implement this blueprint, enhancing the security of open-source software and improving threat identification efficiency.
Nvidia's cybersecurity solution accelerates the analysis of vulnerabilities from days to mere seconds, providing enterprises with actionable insights for maintaining robust security.
Accelerating Data Science with CUDA-X and Polars
Nvidia’s CUDA-X platform is transforming data processing in the data science community, highlighted by the rapid adoption of Polars, a high-performance analytics tool now exceeding 9 million monthly downloads. Polars, designed for efficient data processing, integrates with Nvidia’s GPU engine to achieve up to 13x faster query execution compared to CPU-based systems.
In an era where quick data analysis is pivotal for driving AI applications, Nvidia’s resources deliver the performance necessary to tackle the complexities of large-scale workloads while optimizing cost and energy efficiency.
Nvidia remains committed to pushing the boundaries of AI technology, positioning itself as a leader in both industry innovation and research collaboration.
