Taipei, Taiwan — Nvidia unveiled new powerful chips on Monday that would bring advanced artificial intelligence functions into laptops and desktop computers, with new personal computer models from brands including Microsoft and Dell set to roll out later this year.While Santa Clara, California-based Nvidia has already been massively successful in supplying high-end chips for data centers riding the worldwide AI demand boom, it is plotting different plans to expand its presence across AI systems and products. Jensen Huang, the Taiwanese-American founder and CEO of Nvidia, made the announcement in Taipei at the annual Nvidia GTC event. Microsoft and Nvidia "are going to reinvent the PC (personal computer)," he said in his keynote speech. "This is going to be the new PC," Huang said as he unveiled Nvidia's RTX Spark superchip - which combines CPU, or central processing unit, and GPU, or graphics processing unit, capabilities - that would power new Windows laptop and desktop computer models in what the company called "AI personal computers" expected to debut in the fall of this year. Nvidia is already the world's most valuable company, ahead of Apple, Google's parent Alphabet and Microsoft.
