Nvidia’s AI Super Bowl is here.
CEO Jensen Huang took the stage in San Jose on Tuesday to give the main keynote address at Nvidia’s GTC AI conference.
“What an amazing year it was, and we have a lot of incredible things to talk about,” Huang said. “And I just want you to know that I’m up here without a net. There are no scripts, there’s no teleprompter, and I’ve got a lot of things to cover. So let’s get started.”
In his presentation, Huang is expected to talk more about Nvidia’s upcoming AI chipsets and architectures, including the next-generation Blackwell Ultra and Vera Rubin platform, as well as the chipmaker’s work in robotics and autonomous driving.
The CEO first unveiled the Rubin platform, named after the American astronomer, Vera Rubin, last year at Computex. In the chipmaker’s earnings call in February, Huang said partners were “preparing for that transition,” and it would provide a “big, huge step-up.”
Nvidia is also working on transitioning from Blackwell to Blackwell Ultra, which is expected to launch later this year. After a “hiccup” in early Blackwell production, Huang said in Nvidia’s most recent earnings call that demand has been “extraordinary” and he expects the transition to go more smoothly.

The AI conference is expected to be closely watched by Wall Street analysts, who are looking for any major updates to the company’s product pipeline and specific launch dates.
Nvidia’s GPUs have powered the AI gold rush. Nvidia’s first-generation AI chip, Hopper, has reportedly sold for upward of $40,000 and quickly become a hot commodity in the AI boom.
Huang has said Blackwell is twice as fast and can achieve five times the AI performance of Hopper. Huang said at the company’s last earnings call that Blackwell Ultra is expected to come with new networking, memories, and processors.
