Brighter interpretation
This is management's argument for sustained compute demand, rather than a quantified revenue forecast. The research test is whether customers can profitably deploy these workloads and keep buying capacity.

we're optimizing across the entire stack of software from architectures to chips to systems to system software to the algorithms to the applications. That's one layer. The second thing that you and I just talked about is goes beyond CPUs and GPUs and networking chips and scale up switches and scale out switches.

year. And we said, you know, we we ought to put CUDA on GeForce and put it into every single PC whether customers use it or not and use it as a starting point of cultivating our installed base. Meanwhile, we'll go and attract developers and we went to universities and wrote books and taught classes and put CUDA everywhere.

agreements and design computer architecture systems, data centers such that when they need um the maximum power for infrastructure in society that the data centers would get less. >> But that's in a very rare instance anyways. And during that time, we either have our backup generator for that little part of it or we just have our computers shift the workload somewhere else or

your job is the task if your job is the task then you're very highly going to be disrupted. If your job's purpose includes you certain tasks. Mhm. >> Then it it's vital that you go learn how to use AI to automate those tasks. And then there's the world of spectrum in between.
