Agentic AI is changing how research is done. AI scientists can read papers, propose hypotheses, call models, and determine which experiments to prioritize next. First proving their value in software engineering, coding agents now write, test, and ship production code. Scientific research can be more demanding and iterative. Researchers continually evaluate evidence, refine hypotheses…

A perception stack is shaped by the vehicle that carries it. Move the same software to a new carline—for example, from an SUV to a sedan or another vehicle variant in the portfolio—and its perception of the world changes. The sensor placement, calibration, fields of view, occlusions, body geometry, timing, and coverage all shift. A traffic light may appear in a different part of the frame.

When an LLM engine process fails, the standard recovery path involves a cold restart. This requires loading weights into HBM from storage, compiling kernels, and capturing NVIDIA CUDA graphs. For large models, initialization can take several minutes, during which surviving workers must absorb the displaced traffic. Shadow engine recovery, available as a preview feature in NVIDIA Dynamo…

For years, a Python developer who needed a GPU had two realistic choices: Learn NVIDIA CUDA C++ well enough to write an extension, set up a build toolchain, and maintain bindings back to Python, which most people never did; or move up the stack and let someone else’s library do it, namely PyTorch, CuPy, or RAPIDS. The second option is why the Python GPU ecosystem thrives. But it has limits.

NVIDIA Groq 3 LPX is the interactive AI inference accelerator for the NVIDIA Vera Rubin platform. At the core of the platform is NVIDIA Vera Rubin NVL72, the most versatile machine ever built, delivering high throughput and interactivity across the widest range of AI workloads—from small to large models, both open and closed. Groq 3 LPX, when paired with Vera Rubin NVL72, extends the platform’s…

Recommender systems (RecSys) are one of the most ubiquitous machine learning problems in the consumer internet industry yet notoriously difficult to train and serve at scale. The advent of LLMs has inspired a shift from the traditional embedding-similarity-based objective to a generative one, where the goal is to predict the next action or item in a large catalog given a sequence of user histories.

AI agents are only as effective as the context they receive. Even with capable models and well-documented NVIDIA libraries, agents can spend extra steps finding the right tools, burn tokens on dead ends, or struggle with specialized tasks. Skills package the instructions, examples, and tool guidance for agents to move faster from intent to solution. To measure whether these skills improve agent…

Atomistic simulation requires three things: knowledge of the science, compute-efficient implementation of simulations, and accessible interfaces to the simulation stack. The first remains the researcher’s domain, as no tool substitutes for knowing what to simulate or recognizing a physically meaningful result. NVIDIA ALCHEMI Toolkit, introduced earlier this year, has dramatically reduced the…

Teams customize their models to hit their targets for latency, speed, memory, and compute. With the open NVIDIA Nemotron family of models, developers can find the right-sized model for their needs. The new Nemotron 3.5 Lightning NVFP4 checkpoint, for example, preserves accuracy while unlocking up to 4x faster throughput. It’s compressed down to 22 GB from the 66 GB full precision checkpoint…

Building an AI agent does not end with choosing a single model. Each model has its own strengths, weaknesses, and cost profile, which can shift from one workload to another—or even within the same workload. For example, an agentic task may need classification for one step, reasoning for the next, and a smaller model for routine follow-up tasks. Sending every request to the largest model can…

Autonomous vehicle (AV) development often relies on separate models for trajectory generation, high-level intent prediction, scene understanding, and data labeling. This separation makes it hard to compare related outputs, investigate model behavior, and reuse the same representations across the development workflow.

Running a dedicated Kubernetes cluster per team often results in more isolation than an organization requires. While one cluster can be successfully shared across many teams, the coordination costs increase as the number of teams grows. Challenges include conflicting CRD versions, overlapping RBAC, and no clean way to carve GPU capacity into team-level budgets. At a certain scale…

As agentic and long-context workloads become common, the context lengths increase and attention consumes a larger share of inference time (Figure 1). Because attention now dominates that cost, how it is designed—not just how it is implemented—increasingly determines a model’s inference performance. Shaping model architecture around how GPUs execute it is the premise of AI model co-design.

Two AI computing clusters built from identical NVIDIA H100, GB200 NVL72, or GB300 NVL72 systems can deliver materially different training throughput. We routinely see 8% to 12% gaps between partner deployments and the corresponding NVIDIA reference architecture (RA) on the same workload, same model, same global batch size. The cause is often a stack of configuration choices in the kernel…

Deploying an AI coding assistant in a regulated, sovereign, or source-sensitive environment, often comes with challenges.

Modern chip design is increasingly limited by engineering time. Register transfer level (RTL) development and verification require specialized hardware knowledge, precise reasoning, and repeated interaction with electronic design automation (EDA) tools. LLMs have accelerated code generation, and AI agents extend their impact by using verification feedback to iteratively correct errors.
