At GTC Paris — held alongside VivaTech, Europe’s largest tech event — NVIDIA founder and CEO Jensen Huang delivered a clear message: Europe isn’t just adopting AI — it’s building it. “We now have a new industry, an AI industry, and it’s now part of the new infrastructure, called intelligence infrastructure, that will be used by every country, every society,” Huang said, addressing an audience gathered online and at the iconic Dôme de Paris. From exponential inference growth to quantum breakthroughs, and from infrastructure to industry, agentic AI to robotics, Huang outlined how the region is laying the groundwork for an AI-powered future. A New Industrial Revolution At the heart of this transformation, Huang explained, are systems like GB200 NVL72 — “one giant GPU” and NVIDIA’s most powerful AI platform yet — now in full production and powering everything from sovereign models to quantum computing. “This machine was designed to be a thinking machine, a thinking machine, in the sense that it reasons, it plans, it spends a lot of time talking to itself,” Huang said, walking the audience through the size and scale of these machines and their performance. At GTC Paris, Huang showed audience members the innards of some of NVIDIA’s latest hardware. There’s more coming, with Huang saying NVIDIA’s partners are now producing 1,000 GB200 systems a week, “and this is just the beginning.” He walked the audience through a range of available systems ranging from the tiny NVIDIA DGX Spark to rack-mounted RTX PRO Servers. Huang explained that NVIDIA is working to help countries use technologies like these to build both AI infrastructure — services built for third parties to use and innovate on — and AI factories, which companies build for their own use, to generate revenue. NVIDIA is partnering with European governments, telcos and cloud providers to deploy NVIDIA technologies across the region. NVIDIA is also expanding its network of technology centers across Europe — including new hubs in Finland, Germany, Spain, Italy and the U.K. — to accelerate skills development and quantum growth. Quantum Meets Classical Europe’s quantum ambitions just got a boost. The NVIDIA CUDA-Q platform is live on Denmark’s Gefion supercomputer, opening new possibilities for hybrid AI and quantum engineering. In addition, Huang announced that CUDA-Q is now available on NVIDIA Grace Blackwell systems. Across the continent, NVIDIA is partnering with supercomputing centers and quantum hardware builders to advance hybrid quantum-AI research and accelerate quantum error correction. “Quantum computing is reaching an inflection point,” Huang said. “We are within reach of being able to apply quantum computing, quantum classical computing, in areas that can solve some interesting problems in the coming years.” Sovereign Models, Smarter Agents European developers want more control over their models. Enter NVIDIA Nemotron, designed to help build large language models tuned to local needs. “And so now you know that you have access to an enhanced open model that is still open, that is top of the leader chart,” Huang said. These models will be coming to Perplexity, a reasoning search engine, enabling secure, multilingual AI deployment across Europe. “You can now ask and get questions answered in the language, in the culture, in the sensibility of your country,” Huang said. Huang explained how NVIDIA is helping countries across Europe build AI infrastructure. Every company will build its own agents, Huang said. To help create those agents, Huang introduced a suite of agentic AI blueprints, including an Agentic AI Safety blueprint for enterprises and governments. The new NVIDIA NeMo Agent toolkit and NVIDIA AI Blueprint for building data flywheels further accelerate the development of safe, high-performing AI agents. To help deploy these agents, NVIDIA is partnering with European governments, telcos and cloud providers to deploy the DGX Cloud Lepton platform across the region, providing instant access to accelerated computing capacity. “One model architecture, one deployment, and you can run it anywhere,” Huang said, adding that Lepton is now integrated with Hugging Face, giving developers direct access to global compute. The Industrial Cloud Goes Live AI isn’t just virtual. It’s powering physical systems, too, sparking a new industrial revolution. “We’re working on industrial AI with one company after another,” Huang said, describing work to build digital twins based on the NVIDIA Omniverse platform with companies across the continent. Huang explained that everything he showed during his keynote was “computer simulation, not animation” and that it looks beautiful because “it turns out the world is beautiful, and it turns out math is beautiful.” To further this work, Huang announced NVIDIA is launching the world’s first industrial AI cloud — to be built in Germany — to help Europe’s manufacturers simulate, automate and optimize at scale. “Soon, everything that moves will be robotic,” Huang said. “And the car is the next one.” NVIDIA DRIVE, NVIDIA’s full-stack AV platform, is now in production to accelerate the large-scale deployment of safe, intelligent transportation. And to show what’s coming next, Huang was joined on stage by Grek, a pint-sized robot, as Huang talked about how NVIDIA partnered with DeepMind and Disney to build Newton, the world’s most advanced physics training engine for robotics. The Next Wave The next wave of AI has begun — and it’s exponential, Huang explained. “We have physical robots, and we have information robots. We call them agents,” Huang said. “The technology necessary to teach a robot to manipulate, to simulate — and of course, the manifestation of an incredible robot — is now right in front of us.” This new era of AI is being driven by a surge in inference workloads. “The number of people using inference has gone from 8 million to 800 million — 100x in just a couple of years,” Huang said. To meet this demand, Huang emphasized the need for a new kind of computer: “We need a special computer designed for thinking, designed for reasoning. And that’s what Blackwell is — a thinking machine.” Huang and Grek, as he explained how AI is driving advancements in robotics. These Blackwell-powered systems will live in a new class of data centers — AI factories — built to generate tokens, the raw material of modern intelligence. “These AI factories are going to generate tokens,” Huang said, turning to Grek with a smile. “And these tokens are going to become your food, little Grek.” With that, the keynote closed on a bold vision: a future powered by sovereign infrastructure, agentic AI, robotics — and exponential inference — all built in partnership with Europe.

In a world where snake venom and urine are the new elixirs of youth, the latest biohacking conference has put the "fun" back in dysfunctional. Thanks to the Make America Healthy Again movement, health enthusiasts are now convinced that a splash of reptilian toxins and a little liquid gold will unlock the secrets to eternal life. Who needs scientific evidence when you have fervor and a good dose of wishful thinking? So, if you see someone sipping on what looks suspiciously like a cocktail of questionable origins, just remember: they’re probably one conference away from discovering the fountain of immortality—or at least a new trend in bathroom décor. #Biohacking #EternalYouth #HealthTrends #SnakeVenom #MA

It’s infuriating to see the glorification of the “golden age of theater posters” in the 19th century without recognizing the real issues at play. Yes, Chéret, Toulouse-Lautrec, and Mucha created beautiful art, but let’s not forget that this “age d’or” was built on the backs of marginalized performers and a society that thrived on inequality and exploitation. Why are we romanticizing a period that was anything but golden for many? Instead of idolizing the aesthetics, we should be questioning the systemic issues that allowed such art to flourish in a society rife with social injustices. We need to stop ignoring the harsh realities behind the glamour! #TheaterHistory #SocialJustice #ArtAndI

So, the 'Front Mission 3 Remake' has arrived, and apparently, the AI took a long coffee break while the artists were left to fend for themselves. Who knew that laziness could manifest in such “monstrous art”? Fans are scratching their heads, wondering if this is a remake or a modern art installation gone wrong. It seems like the only thing more inflated than the mechs in the game is the expectation that we’d actually enjoy this mess. Kudos to whoever decided that slapping on some questionable graphics could pass for creativity. Bravo! #FrontMission3Remake #LazyAI #GamingDisappointment #MonstrousArt #VideoGameSatire

Le monde de l'architecture virtuelle est devenu une farce grotesque! Comment est-il possible que des studios comme ZORE, basés en Slovaquie, continuent de faire croire que des rendus magnifiques avec Blender et Octane Engine suffisent à masquer les lacunes criantes de leur approche? Ces visuels époustouflants sont souvent en décalage total avec la réalité des projets architecturaux! On nous vend du rêve, mais où est la substance? Il est temps de remettre en question ces standards irréalistes et de ne pas se laisser berner par des belles images qui n'ont aucune profondeur! Assez de cette superficialité! #ArchViz #ZOREStudio #Blender #OctaneEngine

I watched the trailer for "Fantastic Four: First Steps" with a heart laden with hope, only to feel the weight of disappointment settle in. Each fleeting glimpse of Reed Richards stretching his limbs as Mr. Fantastic feels like a distant dream, a promise unfulfilled. It's as if the magic we once cherished is now but a shadow, leaving me wrestling with the fear that what once brought us joy might only lead to heartache. The anticipation is bittersweet, a cruel reminder of how easily dreams can slip away. I can't help but question if this journey will bring us the family we long to see or just another echo of what could have been. #FantasticFour #FirstSteps #MrFantastic #Disappointment #Loneliness

Ah, *Dune Awakening*! Just when you thought you could escape from the endless grind of “find the spice, fight the sandworms, repeat,” here comes another chance to dive into the vast, sprawling landscape that is as immersive as a sandstorm in your eyes. This title promises to elevate the lore to a whole new level, and by “elevate,” I mean serving it to us like a gourmet dish with just a sprinkle of seasoning. Because, let’s face it, who needs a rich narrative when you can have a beautiful desert to stare at while you click buttons? In the grand tradition of Funcom, where Conan Exiles taught us that lore is merely a side dish to the main course of survival, *Dune Awakening* boldly asserts that the story will have a “high seat at the table.” This is great news for those of us who enjoy complex narratives mixed with our pixelated battles. Just remember, that high seat doesn’t mean it’s the main course; it’s more like the fancy napkin folded into a swan shape that no one really cares about. As we gear up for this epic adventure, let’s ponder the critical question: "How long until you hit the endgame?" For those experienced in the ways of online gaming, this is a question that requires a strong cup of spice-infused coffee and a hearty laugh. Because let’s be real: “endgame” is just a euphemism for the moment you realize you’ve spent countless hours collecting virtual sand and have learned more about the spice economy than your own. Picture this: you’re in the middle of an epic quest, and suddenly, the allure of the endgame starts to sparkle like a mirage in the desert. Will it be worth the grind? Or will we all just end up like Paul Atreides, wondering if all this spice was really worth the trouble? Remember, the lore is the garnish on the plate, and no one ever leaves a restaurant raving about the parsley. So, here’s to *Dune Awakening*! May it provide us endless hours of wandering through vast dunes, fighting off sandworms, and contemplating the meaning of life while keeping an eye on our spice levels. And let’s not forget the thrill of finding out that the real endgame is the friends we made along the way—who also happen to have spent just as many hours as we have staring blankly at their screens, wondering what on earth we’re doing with our lives. After all, as we embark on this journey, one thing is for sure: whether we reach the endgame or not, we’ll all be united in our shared confusion and love for a game that promises to give us everything and nothing at all. So grab your stillsuit and get ready for the ride; it’s going to be a long, sandy road! #DuneAwakening #GamingSatire #EndgameConfusion #Funcom #LoreAndSand
