Read preview"What Nvidia's really good at is creating new markets," Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang told Goldman Sachs CEO David Solomon at a technology conference hosted by the investment bank Wednesday. Solomon asked the most important question in tech today: Where is the return on investment from all this investment in AI infrastructure? AdvertisementFirst, in the age of generative AI, Huang said, cloud providers who buy Nvidia (and other) GPUs and rent them to tech companies, make $5 for every $1 they spend. Huang argued that upgrading existing data centers to "accelerated computing," or the parallel computing that Nvidia GPUs and other AI chips enable, is inevitable. Even if Nvidia's claims that AI computing is more energy efficient are true, the AI boom is expected to put massive pressure on electricity grids.

Nvidia released its fiscal first-quarter earnings report on Wednesday, along with news of a planned 10-for-1 stock split. Shares in the chipmaking giant will begin trading on a split-adjusted basis when the market opens on June 10, according to a release.
