NVIDIA (NVDA) announces expansion into Japan and new AI model

NVIDIA has partnered with multiple Japanese companies as part of its mission.

As NVIDIA continues to pursue advancements in AI, the tech company has made two significant announcements. One, NVIDIA has partnered with several Japanese companies as part of an AI expansion into the country. Secondly, the company has revealed Cosmos 3 Edge, a new AI model.

CNBC reported the new developments out of NVIDIA. In Japan, NVIDIA is set to partner with Fujitsu, Hitachi, Sony Group, and Kawasaki Heavy Industries as it looks to expand its physical AI presence in the country. “The next frontier of AI is in the physical world, and this is a once-in-a-generation opportunity for Japan,” said NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang. “Japan invented modern manufacturing. Now, it has the opportunity to reinvent it for the age of intelligent industries.”

Cosmos 3 Edge, NVIDIA’s latest AI model, is designed for machines and will help embodied systems “see, reason in real time and predict robot actions locally.” The model can be run across NVIDIA RTX GPUs and DGX systems. The details were shared in a post on NVIDIA's website.
