Ten years ago at NVIDIA GTC 2016, our CEO @JensenHuang introduced DGX-1, our first AI supercomputer.
Since then, NVIDIA DGX has transformed from a single system into a blueprint for AI factories. What hasn’t changed is the reason why we build DGX: to test the systems and work through the details of interconnects, cooling, and software so our partners and customers have a proven foundation to build on.
Charlie Boyle, our VP of DGX Systems, looks back at how DGX got its start, what’s changed, and what comes next.
Thanks to everyone who’s been on this journey with us. #DecadeOfDGX
