Jen-Hsun Huang accepted an interview with Wired and talked about his intensive trip around the earth in the past year and Nvidia’s global promotion of Sovereign AI. Huang Jen-Hsun was in Bangkok, Thailand when he was interviewed. He will meet with fifty-six new startup teams in one day and feel the beautiful entrepreneurial atmosphere in Bangkok. He said that when he was five years old, he attended Rudy International, an international school in Thailand, and it felt very familiar to be back in Thailand now.
Huang Renxun specifically mentioned that during this trip to Thailand, they fully felt that they understood the importance of sovereign AI and realized that AI data is part of the country. Social and cultural knowledge can be integrated through artificial intelligence cloud databases, generative AI and big data. Comprehensive analysis, full utilization in various fields and feedback to the people of the country.
What is sovereign AI?
Sovereign AI refers to a country's development of artificial intelligence infrastructure through hardware and software equipment, data, labor and telecommunications networks. Investing in developing sovereign AI can simultaneously master data and develop national applications in transportation, communications, commerce, entertainment, and healthcare. Many countries around the world have cooperated with state-owned telecom operators to develop artificial intelligence cloud databases to fully utilize AI data in education, medical care, legal affairs, financial technology and other application levels.
Sovereign AI can facilitate cultural and linguistic exchanges
Sovereign AI covers the infrastructure of entities and data databases, and can be trained by development teams on large-scale language models on artificial intelligence databases, which can help people who speak different dialects communicate and increase ethnic inclusion.
Since 2019, NVIDIA has promoted the AI Nations program in countries around the world to support the development of AI ecosystems and employee education and training.
Countries around the world are investing in sovereign AI
France-based Scaleway is building Europe’s most powerful cloud-native artificial intelligence supercomputer. The Swiss government-controlled Swisscom Group recently announced the construction of Italy's first NVIDIA DGX-powered supercomputer with its Italian subsidiary Fastweb.
The Indian government has also announced plans for sovereign AI to boost workforce development. India's Tata Group is building a large-scale artificial intelligence infrastructure powered by NVIDIA GH200 Grace Hopper superchips.
Singapore is nurturing a series of sovereign AI projects, including upgrading the National Supercomputing Center (NSCC) with NVIDIA H100 GPUs. Powering Singtel with NVIDIA Hopper architecture GPUs.
Japan is also making every effort to develop sovereign AI, cooperating with NVIDIA to support the development of large-scale LLM models in Japanese, and using AI to enhance natural disaster defenses. SoftBank and NVIDIA collaborate to build generative AI platforms and decentralized AI networks for 5G and 6G.
