Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang predicts that Physical AI will become a major development in the field. He envisions robots powered by AI taking on various forms and carrying out repetitive tasks in settings such as kitchens, factories, doctors' offices, and highways. Nvidia plans to supply the necessary AI software and hardware for teaching and running these AI systems. Huang describes the current phase of AI as pioneering AI, which involves creating foundational models and tools. The next phase, Enterprise AI, is already underway and focuses on improving productivity through AI models and chatbots. The ultimate phase, Physical AI, involves the integration of input from sensors and manipulation of objects in three-dimensional space.

Huang believes that developing foundation models for humanoid robots is a thrilling challenge in today's AI landscape. In order to test and control robots in various circumstances, including those that cannot be anticipated or replicated physically, AI will be used to simulate their environments and interactions. Huang suggests the use of three computers: one for creating AI, one for simulating AI, and one for running AI. Nvidia offers a range of hardware and software solutions to tackle this challenge, including servers, workstations, and GPUs. Nvidia also introduced GR00T, which focuses on understanding and mimicking human movements. Additionally, there are AI NIMs and services available to support the development of generative physical AI simulations, as well as the Nvidia Isaac Manipulator for dexterity and the Isaac Perceptor for vision capabilities. Huang believes that humanoid robots are necessary because existing environments are designed for human operators, making it more cost-effective to create robots that resemble humans than to redesign these spaces. In summary, Huang envisions a future where Physical AI enables robots to perform a wide range of tasks in various settings, revolutionizing industries and daily life.
