AI is no longer solely a back-office tool. Its a strategic partner that can augment decision-making across every line of business.Whether users aim to reduce operational overhead or personalize customer experiences at scale, custom AI agents are key.As AI agents are adopted across enterprises, managing their deployment will require a deliberate strategy. The first steps are architecting the enterprise AI infrastructure to optimize for fast, cost-efficient inference and creating a data pipeline that keeps agents continuously fed with timely, contextual information.Alongside human and hardware resourcing, onboarding AI agents will become a core strategic function for businesses as leaders orchestrate digital talent across the organization.Heres how to onboard teams of AI agents:1. Choose the Right AI Agent for the TaskJust as human employees are hired for specific roles, AI agents must be selected and trained based on the task theyre meant to perform. Enterprises now have access to a variety of AI models including for language, vision, speech and reasoning each with unique strengths.For that reason, proper model selection is critical to achieving business outcomes:Choose a reasoning agent to solve complex problems that require puzzling through answers.Use a code-generation copilot to assist developers with writing, changing and merging code.Deploy a video analytics AI agent for analyzing site inspections or product defects.Onboard a customer service AI assistant thats grounded in a specific knowledge base rather than a generic foundation model.Model selection affects agent performance, costs, security and business alignment. The right model enables the agent to accurately address business challenges, align with compliance requirements and safeguard sensitive data. Choosing an unsuitable model can lead to overconsumption of computing resources, higher operational costs and inaccurate predictions that negatively impact agent decision-making.With software like NVIDIA NIM and NeMo microservices, developers can swap in different models and connect tools based on their needs. The result: task-specific agents fine-tuned to meet a business goals, data strategy and compliance requirements.2. Upskill AI Agents by Connecting Them to DataOnboarding AI agents requires building a strong data strategy.AI agents work best with a consistent stream of data thats specific to the task and the business theyre operating within.Institutional knowledge the accumulated wisdom and experience within an organization is a crucial asset that can often be lost when employees leave or retire. AI agents can play a pivotal role in capturing and preserving this knowledge for employees to use.Connecting AI to data sources: To function at their best, AI agents must interpret a variety of data types, from structured databases to unstructured formats such as PDFs, images and videos. Such connection enables the agents to generate tailored, context-aware responses that go beyond the capabilities of a standalone foundation model, delivering more precise and valuable outcomes.AI as a knowledge repository: AI agents benefit from systems that capture, process and reuse data. A data flywheel continuously collects, processes and uses information to iteratively improve the underlying system. AI systems benefit from this flywheel, recording interactions, decisions and problem-solving approaches to self-optimize their model performance and efficiency. For example, integrating AI into customer service operations allows the system to learn from every conversation, capturing valuable feedback and questions. This data is then used to refine responses and maintain a comprehensive repository of institutional knowledge.NVIDIA NeMo supports the development of powerful data flywheels, providing the tools for continuously curating, refining and evaluating data and models. This enables AI agents to improve accuracy and optimize performance through ongoing adaptation and learning.3. Onboard AI Agents Into Lines of BusinessOnce enterprises create the cloud-based, on-premises or hybrid AI infrastructure to support AI agents and refine the data strategy to feed those agents timely and contextual information, the next step is to systematically deploy AI agents across business units, moving from pilot to scale.According to a recent IDC survey of 125 chief information officers, the top three areas that enterprises are looking to integrate agentic AI are IT processes, business operations and customer service.In each area, AI agents help enhance the productivity of existing employees, such as by automating the ticketing process for IT engineers or giving employees easy access to data to help serve customers.AI agents in the enterprise could also be onboarded for:For telecom operations, Amdocs builds verticalized AI agents using its amAIz platform to handle complex, multistep customer journeys spanning sales, billing and care and advance autonomous networks from optimized planning to efficient deployment. This helps ensure performance of the networks and the services they support.NVIDIA has partnered with various enterprises, such as enterprise software company ServiceNow, and global systems integrators, like Accenture and Deloitte, to build and deploy AI agents for maximum business impact across use cases and lines of business.4. Provide Guardrails and Governance for AI AgentsJust like employees need clear guidelines to stay on track, AI models require well-defined guardrails to ensure they provide reliable, accurate outputs and operate within ethical boundaries.Topical guardrails: Topical guardrails prevent the AI from veering off into areas where they arent equipped to provide accurate answers. For instance, a customer service AI assistant should focus on resolving customer queries and not drift into unrelated topics such as upsells and offerings.Content safety guardrails: Content safety guardrails moderate human-LLM interactions by classifying prompts and responses as safe or unsafe and tagging violations by category when unsafe. These guardrails filter out unwanted language and make sure references are made only to reliable sources, so the AIs output is trustworthy.Jailbreak guardrails: With a growing number of agents having access to sensitive information, the agents could become vulnerable to data breaches over time. Jailbreak guardrails are designed to help with adversarial threats as well as detect and block jailbreak and prompt injection attempts targeting LLMs. These help ensure safer AI interactions by identifying malicious prompt manipulations in real time.NVIDIA NeMo Guardrails empower enterprises to set and enforce domain-specific guidelines by providing a flexible, programmable framework that keeps AI agents aligned with organizational policies, helping ensure they consistently operate within approved topics, maintain safety standards and comply with security requirements with the least latency added at inference.Get Started Onboarding AI AgentsThe best AI agents are not one-size-fits-all. Theyre custom-trained, purpose-built and continuously learning.Business leaders can start their AI agent onboarding process by asking:What business outcomes do we want AI to drive?What knowledge and tools does the AI need access to?Who are the human collaborators or overseers?In the near future, every line of business will have dedicated AI agents trained on its data, tuned to its goals and aligned with its compliance needs. The organizations that invest in thoughtful onboarding, secure data strategies and continuous learning are poised to lead the next phase of enterprise transformation.Watch this on-demand webinar to learn how to create an automated data flywheel that continuously collects feedback to onboard, fine-tune and scale AI agents across enterprises.Stay up to date on agentic AI, NVIDIA Nemotron and more by subscribing to NVIDIA AI news, joining the community and following NVIDIA AI on LinkedIn, Instagram, X and Facebook.Explore the self-paced video tutorials and livestreams.

OpenAI and NVIDIA just announced a landmark AI infrastructure partnership an initiative that will scale OpenAIs compute with multi-gigawatt data centers powered by millions of NVIDIA GPUs.To discuss what this means for the next generation of AI development and deployment, the two companies CEOs, and the president of OpenAI, spoke this morning with CNBCs Jon Fortt.This is the biggest AI infrastructure project in history, said NVIDIA founder and CEO Jensen Huang in the interview. This partnership is about building an AI infrastructure that enables AI to go from the labs into the world.Through the partnership, OpenAI will deploy at least 10 gigawatts of NVIDIA systems for OpenAIs next-generation AI infrastructure, including the NVIDIA Vera Rubin platform. NVIDIA also intends to invest up to $100 billion in OpenAI progressively as each gigawatt is deployed.Theres no partner but NVIDIA that can do this at this kind of scale, at this kind of speed, said Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI.The million-GPU AI factories built through this agreement will help OpenAI meet the training and inference demands of its next frontier of AI models.Building this infrastructure is critical to everything we want to do, Altman said. This is the fuel that we need to drive improvement, drive better models, drive revenue, drive everything.(L to R): OpenAI President Greg Brockman, NVIDIA Founder and CEO Jensen Huang, and OpenAI CEO Sam AltmanBuilding Million-GPU Infrastructure to Meet AI DemandSince the launch of OpenAIs ChatGPT which in 2022 became the fastest application in history to reach 100 million users the company has grown its user base to more than 700 million weekly active users and delivered increasingly advanced capabilities, including support for agentic AI, AI reasoning, multimodal data and longer context windows.To support its next phase of growth, the companys AI infrastructure must scale up to meet not only training but inference demands of the most advanced models for agentic and reasoning AI users worldwide.The cost per unit of intelligence will keep falling and falling and falling, and we think thats great, said Altman. But on the other side, the frontier of AI, maximum intellectual capability, is going up and up. And that enables more and more use and a lot of it.Without enough computational resources, Altman explained, people would have to choose between impactful use cases, for example either researching a cancer cure or offering free education.No one wants to make that choice, he said. And so increasingly, as we see this, the answer is just much more capacity so that we can serve the massive need and opportunity.In 2016, NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang hand-delivered the first NVIDIA DGX system to OpenAIs headquarters in San Francisco.The first gigawatt of NVIDIA systems built with NVIDIA Vera Rubin GPUs will generate their first tokens in the second half of 2026.The partnership expands on a long-standing collaboration between NVIDIA and OpenAI, which began with Huang hand-delivering the first NVIDIA DGX system to the company in 2016.This is a billion times more computational power than that initial server, said Greg Brockman, president of OpenAI. Were able to actually create new breakthroughs, new modelsto empower every individual and business because well be able to reach the next level of scale.Huang emphasized that though this is the start of a massive buildout of AI infrastructure around the world, its just the beginning.Were literally going to connect intelligence to every application, to every use case, to every device and were just at the beginning, Huang said. This is the first 10 gigawatts, I assure you of that.Watch the CNBC interview below.

Celtic languages including Cornish, Irish, Scottish Gaelic and Welsh are the U.K.s oldest living languages. To empower their speakers, the UK-LLM sovereign AI initiative is building an AI model based on NVIDIA Nemotron that can reason in both English and Welsh, a language spoken by about 850,000 people in Wales today.Enabling high-quality AI reasoning in Welsh will support the delivery of public services including healthcare, education and legal resources in the language.I want every corner of the U.K. to be able to harness the benefits of artificial intelligence. By enabling AI to reason in Welsh, were making sure that public services from healthcare to education are accessible to everyone, in the language they live by, said U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer. This is a powerful example of how the latest AI technology, trained on the U.K.s most advanced AI supercomputer in Bristol, can serve the public good, protect cultural heritage and unlock opportunity across the country.The UK-LLM project, established in 2023 as BritLLM and led by University College London, has previously released two models for U.K. languages. Its new model for Welsh, developed in collaboration with Wales Bangor University and NVIDIA, aligns with Welsh government efforts to boost the active use of the language, with the goal of achieving a million speakers by 2050 an initiative known as Cymraeg 2050.U.K.-based AI cloud provider Nscale will make the new model available to developers through its application programming interface. The aim is to ensure that Welsh remains a living, breathing language that continues to develop with the times, said Gruffudd Prys, senior terminologist and head of the Language Technologies Unit at Canolfan Bedwyr, the universitys center for Welsh language services, research and technology. AI shows enormous potential to help with second-language acquisition of Welsh as well as for enabling native speakers to improve their language skills.This new model could also boost the accessibility of Welsh resources by enabling public institutions and businesses operating in Wales to translate content or provide bilingual chatbot services. This can help groups including healthcare providers, educators, broadcasters, retailers and restaurant owners ensure their written content is as readily available in Welsh as they are in English.Beyond Welsh, the UK-LLM team aims to apply the same methodology used for its new model to develop AI models for other languages spoken across the U.K. such as Cornish, Irish, Scots and Scottish Gaelic as well as work with international collaborators to build models for languages from Africa and Southeast Asia.This collaboration with NVIDIA and Bangor University enabled us to create new training data and train a new model in record time, accelerating our goal to build the best-ever language model for Welsh, said Pontus Stenetorp, professor of natural language processing and deputy director for the Centre of Artificial Intelligence at University College London. Our aim is to take the insights gained from the Welsh model and apply them to other minority languages, in the U.K. and across the globe.Tapping Sovereign AI Infrastructure for Model DevelopmentThe new model for Welsh is based on NVIDIA Nemotron, a family of open-source models that features open weights, datasets and recipes. The UK-LLM development team has tapped the 49-billion-parameter Llama Nemotron Super model and 9-billion-parameter Nemotron Nano model, post-training them on Welsh-language data.Compared with languages like English or Spanish, theres less available source data in Welsh for AI training. So to create a sufficiently large Welsh training dataset, the team used NVIDIA NIM microservices for gpt-oss-120b and DeepSeek-R1 to translate NVIDIA Nemotron open datasets with over 30 million entries from English to Welsh.They used a GPU cluster through the NVIDIA DGX Cloud Lepton platform and are harnessing hundreds of NVIDIA GH200 Grace Hopper Superchips on Isambard-AI the U.K.s most powerful supercomputer, backed by 225 million in government investment and based at University of Bristol to accelerate their translation and training workloads.This new dataset supplements existing Welsh data from the teams previous efforts.Capturing Linguistic Nuances With Careful EvaluationBangor University, located in Gwynedd the county with the highest percentage of Welsh speakers is supporting the new models development with linguistic and cultural expertise.Welsh translation of: The aim is to ensure that Welsh remains a living, breathing language that continues to develop with the times. Gruffudd Prys, Bangor UniversityPrys, from the universitys Welsh-language center, brings to the collaboration about two decades of experience with language technology for Welsh. He and his team are helping to verify the accuracy of machine-translated training data and manually translated evaluation data, as well as assess how the model handles nuances of Welsh that AI typically struggles with such as the way consonants at the beginning of Welsh words change based on neighboring words.The model, as well as the Welsh training and evaluation datasets, are expected to be made available for enterprise and public sector use, supporting additional research, model training and application development.Its one thing to have this AI capability exist in Welsh, but its another to make it open and accessible for everyone, Prys said. That subtle distinction can be the difference between this technology being used or not being used.Deploy Sovereign AI Models With NVIDIA Nemotron, NIM MicroservicesThe framework used to develop UK-LLMs model for Welsh can serve as a foundation for multilingual AI development around the world.Benchmark-topping Nemotron models, data and recipes are publicly available for developers to build reasoning models tailored to virtually any language, domain and workflow. Packaged as NVIDIA NIM microservices, Nemotron models are optimized for cost-effective compute and run anywhere, from laptop to cloud.Europes enterprises will be able to run open, sovereign models on the Perplexity AI-powered search engine.Get started with NVIDIA Nemotron.Welsh translation:Ymestyn Ar Draws yr Ynysoedd: Mae DU-LLM yn Dod Deallusrwydd Artiffisial i Ieithoedd y DU Gyda NVIDIA NemotronWedii hyfforddi ar yr uwch gyfrifiadur Isambard-AI, mae model newydd a ddatblygwyd gan University College London, NVIDIA a Phrifysgol Bangor yn manteisio ar dechnegau a setiau data ffynhonnell agored NVIDIA Nemotron i alluogi rhesymu Deallusrwydd Artiffisial ar gyfer y Gymraeg ac ieithoedd eraill y DU ar gyfer gwasanaethau cyhoeddus gan gynnwys gofal iechyd, addysg ac adnoddau cyfreithiol.Ieithoedd Celtaidd gan gynnwys Cernyweg, Gwyddeleg, Gaeleg yr Alban a Chymraeg yw ieithoedd byw hynaf y DU.

Editors note: This post is part of the AI On blog series, which explores the latest techniques and real-world applications of agentic AI, chatbots and copilots. The series also highlights the NVIDIA software and hardware powering advanced AI agents, which form the foundation of AI query engines that gather insights and perform tasks to transform everyday experiences and reshape industries.AI agents are expected to be involved in most business tasks within three years, with effective human-agent collaboration projected to increase human engagement in high-value tasks by 65%.AI agents can help achieve and exceed efficiency goals as they learn, reason and adjust based on context and outcomes. As they become increasingly central to business strategies, understanding where they deliver impact and justify investment is essential for leaders.Here are six ways agentic AI boosts team performance and practical tips for measuring its impact.1. Accelerating Software Development With AI AgentsAI agents can act as intelligent copilots, helping automate code generation, testing and deployment.They can pinpoint errors early, resulting in higher-quality, faster releases, and speed onboarding of new engineers by providing AI-curated information and context on documentation.For example, NVIDIA ChipNeMo a team of specialized agents built on custom large language models (LLMs) and trained on NVIDIAs internal chip design data helped 5,000 NVIDIA engineers in design, verification and documentation save 4,000 engineering days in just one year.Since deployment, ChipNeMo has:Learn about building agents with NVIDIA Nemotron and improving AI code generation using NVIDIA NeMo Agent Toolkit.2. Driving Data-Backed Decision-MakingAgents can help businesses across industries easily glean insights from complex, time-sensitive data for critical decision-making, such as on investments or business strategy.BlackRocks Aladdin Copilot an embedded AI assistant serving thousands of users across hundreds of financial institutions lets teams garner portfolio insights, assess investment research and monitor available cash balances through simple text prompts. Its helped reduce research time from minutes to seconds while enhancing data-driven investment decisions.VAST Data uses agents to rapidly gather and synthesize information from internal and external sources. For its sales teams, this means faster access to useful, up-to-date insights on client accounts.3. Optimizing IT OperationsAgents excel at maintaining IT operations, including by proactively monitoring infrastructure and automating decision-making.AI agents in IT operations offer:In fast-paced telco environments, agents can help manage networks by analyzing real-time performance indicators and predicting service failures. For example, Telenor Group integrated the NVIDIA Blueprint for telco network configuration to deploy intelligent, autonomous networks that meet the performance demands of 5G and beyond.4. Streamlining Industrial and Manufacturing OperationsAble to interact with the physical world, video analytics AI agents can monitor assembly lines for quality checks and anomaly detection.Pegatron developed the PEGA AI Factory platform to accelerate the development of AI agents across the company by 400% in the last four years. In addition, the companys digital twin platform PEGAVERSE was built on the NVIDIA Omniverse platform and lets engineers virtually simulate, test and optimize production lines before theyre built, cutting factory construction time by 40%.Pegatron also augmented its assembly process using video analytics AI agents, powered by NVIDIA AI Blueprint for video search and summarization, and saw a 7% reduction in labor costs per assembly line and a 67% decrease in defect rates.Siemens is bringing generative AI into their solutions with the Industrial Copilot to tap real-time factory data to guide maintenance technicians and shopfloor operators. Interviews with maintenance engineers indicate that this could save on average 25% reactive maintenance time.Foxconn uses digital twins and AI agents to optimize its production lines, reducing deployment time by 50%, as well as to simulate robots and monitor quality and safety in real time.5. Enhancing Customer ServiceAgents excel at handling customer service at scale, reducing customer wait times by handling thousands of inquiries simultaneously.AT&T employees and contractors use a generative AI solution called Ask AT&T, which has over 100 solutions and agents in production. Built with LLMs served by NVIDIA NeMo and NIM microservices, Ask AT&T helps fetch relevant documentation and autonomously resolve routine inquiries.Offering 24/7 personalized support, Ask AT&T shares context-relevant suggestions by recalling organizational information from emails, meetings and past transactions. And to continuously improve agent performance, real-time feedback loops are built into the system using a data flywheel.These automated services resulted in 84% lower call center transcript analytics costs.6. Delivering Personalized EducationAI agents are making individualized learning support more accessible, scalable and effective while freeing up instructors for more in-depth teaching.Faced with surging class sizes and a shortage of teaching assistants, Clemson University developed an AI-powered TA built with the NVIDIA Blueprint for retrieval-augmented generation to guide students through challenging concepts.Rather than simply providing answers, the virtual TA walks students through problems step by step, encouraging active problem-solving and critical thinking to promote deeper understanding and academic integrity.The assistant also personalizes feedback and hints in alignment with course content, assignment deadlines and student submissions. It operates 24/7, giving every student timely, tailored support regardless of enrollment size.How Can the Success of AI Agents Be Measured?Measuring the impact of AI agents isnt just a box to check its essential to maximizing investment. The way users define success will directly shape how well these systems deliver value. Too often, businesses deploy agents without a clear measurement framework, making it difficult to prove return on investment or identify areas for improvement.When setting up an evaluation strategy, users should consider which metrics matter most for their goals. For example:Adoption and engagement: Track whether the technology is being embraced. Metrics include how many eligible users interact with the agent and how frequently along with how long the sessions last. High engagement means the agent is routinely providing effective support.Task completion: Look beyond usage to outcomes. Measure how many tasks or requests the agent handles and what portions are fulfilled without human intervention. In software development, users can measure the automated code generation rate to see how much of the software is being developed by an agent. A high automated task completion rate means employees are freed up for higher-value work.Productivity and efficiency gains: Quantify time saved. Metrics like time to resolve IT issues, report generation time for decision-making and average handling time for customer service interactions help demonstrate clear efficiency improvements.Business outcomes: Connect agent performance to bottom-line results. This could mean cost per interaction in support, time to market in software development or unplanned downtime reduction in IT operations.High-quality user experience: Ensure the system is both trusted and effective. Consider a code quality score for developers, prediction accuracy in data-backed decision-making or customer satisfaction scores in service scenarios.The key takeaway: measuring AI agent success goes far beyond a single number. Adoption, efficiency, accuracy and business impact all matter. By choosing the right mix of metrics upfront, businesses can validate success while continually refining and improving how agents deliver value.Read more stories on how customers are adopting AI applications to reshape their daily operations and increase their return on investment.Stay up to date on agentic AI, NVIDIA Nemotron and more by subscribing to NVIDIA news, joining the community and following NVIDIA AI on LinkedIn, Instagram, X and Facebook.

Robots around the world are about to get a lot smarter as physical AI developers plug in NVIDIA Jetson Thor modules new robotics computers that can serve as the brains for robotic systems across research and industry.Robots demand rich sensor data and low-latency AI processing. Running real-time robotic applications requires significant AI compute and memory to handle concurrent data streams from multiple sensors. Jetson Thor, now in general availability, delivers 7.5x more AI compute, 3.1x more CPU performance and 2x more memory than its predecessor, the NVIDIA Jetson Orin, to make this possible on device.This performance leap will enable roboticists to process high-speed sensor data and perform visual reasoning at the edge workflows that were previously too slow to run in dynamic real-world environments. This opens new possibilities for multimodal AI applications such as humanoid robotics.Agility Robotics, a leader in humanoid robotics, has integrated NVIDIA Jetson into the fifth generation of its robot, Digit and plans to adopt Jetson Thor as the onboard compute platform for the sixth generation of Digit. This transition will enhance Digits real-time perception and decision-making capabilities, supporting increasingly complex AI skills and behaviors. Digit is commercially deployed and performs logistics tasks such as stacking, loading and palletizing in warehouse and manufacturing environments.The powerful edge processing offered by Jetson Thor will take Digit to the next level enhancing its real-time responsiveness and expanding its abilities to a broader, more complex set of skills, said Peggy Johnson, CEO of Agility Robotics. With Jetson Thor, we can deliver the latest physical AI advancements to optimize operations across our customers warehouses and factories.Boston Dynamics which has been building some of the industrys most advanced robots for over 30 years is integrating Jetson Thor into its humanoid robot Atlas, enabling Atlas to harness formerly server-level compute, AI workload acceleration, high-bandwidth data processing and significant memory on device.Beyond humanoids, Jetson Thor will accelerate various robotic applications such as surgical assistants, smart tractors, delivery robots, industrial manipulators and visual AI agents with real-time inference on device for larger, more complex AI models.A Giant Leap for Real-Time Robot ReasoningJetson Thor is built for generative reasoning models. It enables the next generation of physical AI agents powered by large transformer models, vision language models and vision language action models to run in real time at the edge while minimizing cloud dependency.Optimized with the Jetson software stack to enable the low latency and high performance required in real-world applications, Jetson Thor supports all popular generative AI frameworks and AI reasoning models with unmatched real-time performance.
