Nvidia will host its annual GTC developer conference in San Jose, California, next week, featuring a keynote from CEO Jensen Huang on Monday at 11 a.m. PT / 2 p.m. ET. The event will run for three days and cover AI developments across healthcare, robotics, and autonomous vehicles.
The conference serves as a platform for Nvidia to announce new products, detail partnerships, and outline its strategy for the future of computing and AI. The broader event focuses on the next phase of AI applications across multiple industries.
Nvidia is rumored to release an open-source platform for enterprise AI agents called NemoClaw. The platform would provide businesses with a structured method to build and deploy autonomous software agents.
On the hardware side, the company is rumored to release a new chip designed to accelerate the AI inference process. The chip would represent Nvidia’s latest bid to expand beyond the training market, where it holds an estimated 80% share, and into the inference market.
Kevin Cook, a senior equity strategist at Zacks Investment Research, told TechCrunch that attendees should expect updates on Nvidia’s relationship with Groq. Nvidia reportedly paid $20 billion late last year to license Groq’s technology.
