Jensen Huang<\/a>, the cofounder and CEO of Nvidia<\/a>, the semiconductor company that has taken the global stock market by storm, was present at the birth of the current AI movement.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n

In fact, one might say he helped sire it when, in August 2016, he donated a groundbreaking new supercomputer<\/a> specifically designed for AI to a newly founded nonprofit called OpenAI. At the time OpenAI\u2019s research efforts were led by its cofounder Elon Musk, before he departed over differences<\/a> with current CEO Sam Altman.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cI delivered to [Musk] the first AI supercomputer the world ever made,\u201d Huang said during an interview<\/a> at the New York Times Dealbook Summit in November. Building the 70-pound, 35,000-part computer took years, according to Huang.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cIt took us five years to make it. It\u2019s called a DGX and it\u2019s everywhere in the world today.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
