  • Nvidia's Nemotron 4 aims for a trillion parameters, but China is already there

    Nvidia is building Nemotron 4, a new family of open-weight AI models meant to challenge the strongest freely available models, according to reporting by The Information cited by The Decoder. The largest model in the family is planned to reach at least one trillion parameters, twice the size of Nvidia's current Nemotron 3 Ultra. To train it, Nvidia has tripled its cloud spending on in-house model development to 28 billion dollars through 2031. The earliest the models could ship is this fall. C

  • Nvidia's Nemotron 3.5 Lightning bets on speed over size

    Nvidia has released Nemotron 3.5 Lightning, the first model in a new Nemotron 3.5 family, and it is playing a different game than most open-weight releases this year. Instead of chasing the highest intelligence score, Nvidia built a compact model that runs fast and cheap while still matching much larger rivals on standard benchmarks. A small model that keeps up Lightning carries 31.6 billion total parameters, but only 3.6 billion are active at any moment. It keeps the hybrid Mamba-Transformer

  • NSF Commits $100 Million to Regional AI Infrastructure Hubs

    The U.S. National Science Foundation launched a $100 million program on August 4 to build state and regional AI infrastructure hubs, with NVIDIA, AMD, Intel, and Dell Technologies among the private-sector partners. The NSF State and Regional Artificial Intelligence Infrastructure Hubs program will fund up to 10 regional consortia that pool compute, data, and expertise for researchers, students, and educators who currently lack access to AI-scale computing resources. Public-private cost

  • Nvidia Opens Alpamayo 2 Super for Commercial Use

    Nvidia has released the weights for Alpamayo 2 Super, a 34-billion-parameter vision-language-action model for autonomous-vehicle development, under the Linux Foundation's OpenMDW-1.1 license. The change gives automakers and autonomous-driving developers a commercial path to fine-tune, redistribute, and build derivative models from Nvidia's largest Alpamayo release, according to the company's announcement and model card. A cloud teacher model, not a robotaxi driver Alpamayo 2 Super combi
