Meta Platforms is planning to pay Nvidia billions of dollars this year for its cutting-edge AI technology.
Nvidia's stock has been off to a blistering start this year, up more than 20%, including a 3% gain Friday.
Estimates on Nvidia's share of the AI training market vary, but is generally thought to be well above 80%.
Still, Nvidia's stock more than tripled in 2023, leading the S & P 500, and has so far been a big winner in 2024.
As Meta secures more AI chips, they will be placed in data centers where their computational capabilities will be utilized.
