Nvidia will release a personal artificial intelligence supercomputer known as Project Digits in May.
Project Digits can run AI models with up to 200 billion parameters, the company said at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas this week. Two Project Digits devices can be linked to run models with up to 405 billion parameters — around the same amount used by Meta’s Llama 3.1 AI model.
“AI will be mainstream in every application for every industry,” said Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang. “Placing an AI supercomputer on the desks of every data scientist, AI researcher and student empowers them to engage and shape the age of AI.”
The supercomputer will feature Nvidia’s GB10 Grace Blackwell Superchip, which include one petaflop of AI performance. This is the equivalent of one quadrillion computing operations per second.
It will also contain 128 gigabytes of memory and up to four terabytes of nonvolatile memory express storage. Project Digits is priced at US$3,000.
Nvidia’s other announcements at CES included Cosmos, an open-license platform to help develop physical AI systems, such as robots and self-driving vehicles.
Cosmos can generate synthetic training data, according to Nvidia.
“Like large language models, world foundation models are fundamental to advancing robot and AV development, yet not all developers have the expertise and resources to train their own,” said Huang. “We created Cosmos to democratise physical AI and put general robotics in reach of every developer.”
Nvidia’s (NASDAQ: NVDA) share price closed at US$140.14, down from its previous close at $149.43. Its market capitalisation is US$3.43 trillion.
