SESSION + Live Q&A
Fuelling the AI Revolution with Gaming
Artificial Intelligence will improve productivity, products and services, across a broad range of applications, all benefiting humanity. NVIDIA is researching all areas and working closely with top research labs around the world, Enterprise & startups in both problem-solving and getting started. Alison's talk will briefly cover the HW & SW that comprise NVIDIA's GPU computing platform for AI, across PC to data center, cloud to edge, training to inference. The talk will also detail current state-of-the-art research & recent internal work combining robotics with virtual reality & reinforcement learning in an end-to-end simulator for training and testing robots. The system demonstrates a combination of all of NVIDIA's graphics & deep learning expertise, physics solvers and advanced rendering.
