Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang calls Elon Musk the 'ultimate GPU'
"Even without a Neuralink implant, Elon Musk has a lot going on in his head. Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang says the way Musk's brain works makes him capable of accomplishing "unique" feats. Musk plays a pivotal role in at least five companies and is building tech from robots to self-driving cars to AI companions. On top of all that, he's also building Colossus II, which he said was "the world's first Gigawatt AI training cluster.""
""These AI supercomputers are complicated things," Huang said. "The technology is complicated. Procuring it is complicated because of financing issues. Securing the land power and shell, powering it is complicated." Huang said that it was "unquestionably the most complex systems problem humanity has ever endeavored." As Musk aims to solve that "systems problem," Huang said that Musk had one thing going for him: "All of these systems are interoperating and the interdependencies reside in one head, including the financing.""
"The podcast's hosts compared Musk to a "big GPT" or a supercomputer, to which Huang said, "He's the ultimate GPU." "He has a great sense of urgency," Huang said. "He has a real desire to to build it, and so when will comes together with skill, unbelievable things can happen. Quite unique." Musk is building xAI's Colossus II data center outside of Memphis, Tennessee."
Elon Musk mentally holds the interdependencies required to build large-scale AI supercomputers, integrating technology, procurement, financing, land, power, and physical infrastructure. Musk leads multiple companies and develops robots, self-driving cars, and AI companions while constructing Colossus II, billed as the world's first Gigawatt AI training cluster built with Nvidia GPUs. Building such AI supercomputers involves complex technical and logistical challenges, including securing financing, procuring hardware, and powering expansive data centers. Centralized decision-making and urgency combined with technical skill can accelerate progress and enable unusually rapid systems integration and deployment.
