Nvidia Details New A.I. Chips and Autonomous Car Project With Mercedes

Nvidia's Vera Rubin AI chips reduce inference costs by up to 10 times and enable Mercedes to launch self-driving CLA cars in Europe and the US.

  • On Monday at CES technology trade show in Las Vegas, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang said `Today, I can tell you that Vera Rubin is in full production,` and it is on track to begin arriving to customers later this year.
  • Built with Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company's 3 nm process, the Rubin platform bundles six chips including Rubin GPU and Vera CPU, and Nvidia says Rubin cleared low-volume testing and validation.
  • Technical details show Rubin delivers, as Nvidia told analysts it will cut AI model costs to about one-tenth of Blackwell and each Vera Rubin superchip reaches 50 petaFLOPS inference and 35 petaFLOPS training using an adaptive compression technique.
  • Industry rollout plans show Microsoft and CoreWeave will offer Rubin-powered services later this year, with Microsoft data centers in Georgia and Wisconsin including thousands of Rubin chips, making AI systems cheaper to operate.
  • In automotive developments, the company showed Alpamayo, a "reasoning vision language action" model, and said its autonomous driving stack will hit US roads late this year with the Mercedes Benz CLA.
