A physical remarks could be.

The card itself, Tony referred to our remarks.

So that it could be an intelligence assist.

Our system.

But I find demonstrated probably good.

The more information the largest application of robots in the future with avatars.

We are.

Built on the virtual avatars to make it easy for people to immediately some amazing technology with.

With computer vision and speech recognition natural language understanding gesture recognition.

And his team.

Speech synthesis recommends to assumes all of that integrated into <unk>.

Into one system.

And running in real time.

Doug Avatar system as essentially a robotics system into whether you would do for us.

For example.

With 25 million or so retail stores and restaurants.

Places like airports.

<unk> patients.

For office buildings, and such where Youre going to have intelligent avatars doing a lot of the systems that you might be doing check out they might be doing there might be.

Reviewing our customer support.

Alright.

And all of that can be done with advertising industry.

Chemistry.

The virtual the virtual robotics.

Application.

Digital bonds with avatars.

It is going to be likely the largest robotics robotics opportunities. So if you look at our licensing model.

The way basically works is that <unk> each one of the new users new users and an end users could be one of the 20 million creators are $20 million and designers and over $40 million cruise and designers around the world.

When you scale on reverse right.

But each one of the many users with the $1000 per user per year.

But don't forget the.

Intelligent use or intelligent users that are going to be connected to our members.

We'll likely be much larger.

As digital box in humans, So I've mentioned 40 million, but there's 100 million cars.

And the new 100 million cars.

So we'll all have we'll all be.

We have the capability to have.

Something like an Ottoman Bruce Laboratory.

And so that $100 million cars could be $1000.

Per car per year.

And in the case of where 20 <unk> $25 million or so.

<unk> places.

You would have the digital avatars as customer support or check out smart retail smart warehouses from whatever it is.

Avatars.

Also with each individually be a named accounts and sort of the one.

$1000 for avatar per year.

And so.

Those are the immediate tangible.

Opportunities for us and demonstrates the application.

During the keynote.

And then and then of course behind all of that.

The.

Call. It a couple of hundred million dollars.

Digital agents intelligent, reaching some room in terms of <unk> some of them avatars.

$1000 per approved per agent per.

Per year.

Find it.

<unk>.

Our immediate threats and video Gpus in Pcs.

Video Gpus in the cloud.

And <unk> on the server.

Good.

Minus my guess would be the.

The hardware part of it is probably going to be about half the move the licensing part of the car D about half over time.

So this is this is really really going to be one of them.

The largest.

Graphics opportunities with EBIT proceed.

And the reason why why it's taking so long for this can manifest as because it requires three fundamental technologies become together with four fundamentals of mortgage compared to first of all as we get aggressive secondly, with acceleration because.

Because we're talking about things.

World.

It has to be believable. So it has to be the laws of physics, and then third is artificial intelligence or something.

So we're seeing just now and all of it runs on on top of the omnibus computer that has to do not just in <unk>.

Not just because the non tier computer graphics, but all of them.

So.

Long term people why people are so excited about it.

At the highest level, where the basically.

The long term.

Yes.

When we engage the internet, which has largely to do today.

Long term.

Every every query would be <unk>.

Instead of just.

<unk> information, we recruit and interact with people and avatars.

Yes.

Places in all of these things are in <unk>. So so so hopefully one of these days.

The new credit realize it as fast as we soon.

Every every transaction that goes into the union touches a GPU.

And today today, that's a very small percentage, but hopefully one of these days will be a very very high percentage.

I hope that's helpful.

Yeah.

For our next question, we have Mark <unk> from Jefferies. Mark Your line is open.

Hi. Thanks for taking my question. Jensen, it seems like every year, there seems to be a new set of demand drivers for your accelerated path. Accelerated processing. Sit down there's gaming than neural network, and AI and blockchain and the Ray tracing. And if the five or six years ago.

Jensen It seems like every year, there seems to be a new set of demand drivers for your accelerated path.

Accelerated processing.

Sit down there's gaming than neural network, and AI and blockchain and the Ray tracing.

And if the five or six years ago.

You guys showed a bunch of virtual reality demos, which are really exciting and at your analyst day excitement down died down that seems to be resurfacing, particularly with our diverse avatar capability at Facebook shining a light on opportunities. So the two questions from that are.

How close is your on the virus avatar.

Morphing into like a mass market technology.

Everybody uses daily.

If you talk about like you said that everybody is going to be a game or is everybody going to be used.

He is going to be omnivorous Avatar, you said and maybe maybe the bigger picture is.

Is it reasonable to think about a new.

Killer App coming out every year or is there a parallel that we should think about with.

With previous compete in markets that we can think about.

For the computing era that we're entering right now thank you.

I really appreciate that.

No.

Scripts are enablers.

But just don't create markets software creates market.

Okay.

I've explained I've explained.

Over the years that accelerated computing is very different than general purpose computing.

The reason for that is because you can't.

Right.

C compiler and compile.

Quantum physics into into Intuit's, yeah. It does.

You can't just compiled as goodyear's equation inherently distributed across multiple gpus multiple nodes in heavy duty truck.

You can't do that for computer graphics, you can't do that for artificial intelligence you can do that for robotics, you Couldnt do that.

For most of the interesting applications in the world.

And so because we really went out of steam with CPM.

People are saying theyre not because it's not true.

Abundantly clear.

The amount of instruction level parallelism that we can squeeze out of the system.

Although not zero is incredibly hard.

Incredibly hard and.

And.

And there's another approach.

We've been advocating accelerated computing for some funding and now people really see the benefit of it but it does require a lot of work.

We're basically says for every domain for every application and you have.

For every application and large demand that Julie.

To have a full staff.

And so whenever you want to open a new market by accelerating.

And those applications or the domain of application you have to come up with a new stock.

And the new stack is hard because you have to understand the obligations of the.

The algorithms the mathematics, you have to understand computer science to distributed across on to take something that was a single threaded and making multi threaded need something that works.

<unk> done.

Don.

Principally in making music concert from Carlyle.

You break everything great storage and networking.

Yes.

And so so it takes a fair amount of expertise and that's why we've seen.

Over the years over the course of 30 years, we see from a full company because we've been trying to solve this problem.

Practices regretted.

And so that's more what the benefit once you have that ability is and you can open new markets.

And.

We played a very large role in the monetizing artificial intelligence that will be impossible for anybody to be.

We're going to do it.

Our greatest contribution.

As I hope when it's all said and done.

We democratize.

Scientific computing, so that so that the researchers and scientists computer sciences.

Data Sciences funding Valkyrie.

We're able to get access to this incredibly powerful tool that we call computer.

To do.

Advanced research and so every single every single year, we're coming up with new stocks.

And we got a whole bunch of stars are working on and many of them working on site. So there you see a permanent as you start to connect it together.

One of the one of the areas.

We spoke about this time.

Of course was <unk>.

You saw the pieces of the rebuilt.

Overtime.

Typically took half a decade to start building on rivers.

It built on.

<unk> century of work.

In the case of the omnibus Avatar.

You could literally point to Maryland to recommend or Mega condo language language model.

<unk> the speech AI all of our computer vision.

<unk>.

That have been demonstrating over the years.

Yes.

Natural speech synthesis that you see every single year with IBM and like the opening credits how we're using.

Developing and AI to be able to speak in human way, so that people feel more comfortable and more engaged with the AI.

Phase II tracking.

<unk> and.

Almost all of these technologies all kind of came together.

All that being built in pieces from the integrated ERP intentions of ingredients to create what is called an avatar.

And I know you asked the question.

How quickly will we deploy those I believe on the bridge laboratory.

We'll be in drive throughs of restaurants fast food restaurants, checkouts of restaurants, and retail stores are all over the world within less than five years.

We're really legal in all kinds of different applications.

There is such a great shortage of labor and there's just such a wonderful way that you can now do.

Avatar.

I think it does.

It doesn't make mistakes and never gets tired.

We're done.

Most of that is cloud native.

And so when you saw that you saw the Cumulus I hope you'd agree.

The interaction with continues.

Yeah.

The conversation on a forum so enjoyable.

And.

And so anyway.

I think what you are what you, which you highlighted as Q1.

Accelerated computing is a full strength challenge to it takes software to open new markets.

<unk> opened new markets you build another typically you can steal somebody sure you can open a new market.

But it takes software.

And video ads, which was software.

Thats one of the reasons why we can recruit.

Large market opportunity.

And then lastly, with respect to <unk> I believe it's a near term opportunity, but with a 41% in Q4 five years.

For our next question, we have CJ Muse from Evercore ISI. Your line is open yeah. Good afternoon, and thank you for taking the question and I guess not.

Not at all my first question, but I guess Jensen I'd like your commitment that you will not use omni versus target the sell side research industry.

As my real question can you speak to your data center visibility into 2022 and beyond.

Within this outlook can you talk to traditional cloud versus industry verticals, and then perhaps emerging opportunities like <unk> and others would love to get a sense of.

Kind of what Youre seeing today and that is part of that you know how youre planning.

To secure foundry and other supply.

Yes.

To support that growth. Thank you.

Thank you Susan.

Hum.

First of all we have we have secured.

Guaranteed supply.

Very large amounts of it.

Quite quite a spectacular amount of it.

From the world's leading foundries.

Hum.

Got it.

Substrate in packaging and testing.

Testing companies.

The integral part of our supply chain.

So we are we.

We have done that and.

Feel very good about.

R R.

The supply situation, particularly starting in the second half of this year.

Going forward.

Right.

I think.

This whole last year was a wakeup call for for everybody to.

To be much more mindful about evolved from a merchant model, taking the supply chain for <unk>.

Granted.

We were fortunate to have such great partners.

Nonetheless, we've secured institute our future.

With respect to datacenter about half of our Hamburg.

The data center business comes from.

Cloud and cloud service providers and the other half comes from.

Enterprise mobile computing enterprise companies.

All in all kinds of industries.

And about 1% of it comes from Supercomputing centers, you can split sort of 50% or so cloud.

50% or so enterprise and 1%.

And anthem.

We expect what we expect next year, the cloud to cloud service providers.

Scale out.

Deep learning.

AI.

Workload really aggressively.

And we're seeing that right now.

We built we've built a really fantastic platform.

Number one number two.

The work, we've been doing with tensor RT, which has which is the one time that goes into the server that's called Triton.

It is one of our best pieces of work I'm, just so proud of it.

We said we said no.

Four years ago, three and half years ago, when steel prices can be one of the great confusion was challenged we really proven to be so and the reason for that is because frequently throughput sometimes with latency something.

And the type of models or is it new for instance, just over the mouth is not just computer vision where image recognition.

All over the map.

And and repricing of some slightly different different.

Types of architectures, which don't need different ways to build different applications.

And so the application publicly.

And in front of me Susan.

This is a wonderful people working.

We're now on our eighth generation on that.

Adopted all over the World from 25000 companies are now using Nvidia, Illinois and.

And recently at GTC, we announced two very very soon.

One one we reminded everybody that.

Just six months before we have an <unk>.

<unk> supports not just in every generation of Nvidia Gpus of which there are so many versions could be margin without trading how would you possibly.

Deploy.

Across the entire fleet within video servers, and Vega GPU servers that are all over the world and so it's almost it's almost an essential tool.

Operator, we can take advantage of all of the video Gpus.

Davidson.

We.

We support Cpus and so it's no longer necessary for someone to have two <unk> servers. We can just have one improves because DMD aversion is already a central now everybody could just be frightened and every at every single server in the datacenter could be could be part of the.

Capacity in there.

We did something that was a really big deal as you can see which is which we called force do free library call, Phil, but basically the most popular machine learning.

This was an interim models are based on <unk>.

<unk>.

And boosted great interesting.

And people want to know what is next to Bruce.

When it's used all over the place and.

Fraud detection recommended with firms.

Utilize the companies all over the world.

It's just it's self explanatory you can build upon.

Even with a refreshing to see field.

We're going into the season and we are.

This GTC, we announced that we support is not as well until all of the sum of all of that workload that runs on Cpus not only do they run on.

On trade it becomes accelerated in March.

The next Pwc and <unk>.

With.

Tremendous interest in margin language model.

Triton now also supports multi GPU and multimode <unk>, so that we could pay something like an <unk> <unk> three.

Nvidia Megatron.

<unk> hundred 30 beauty or anybody giant model, that's being developed all over the world and all these different languages and all these different demand in all these different.

Yields as volumes in <unk>.

Industry, we can now increases in real time.

And our demonstrated one of the determinants.

For the <unk>.

Built in.

We'll be able to see basically answer your questions and your time.

And so that is just a giant breakthrough.

But these are the type of workload.

That's going to make it possible for us to continue to scale out and datacenter.

So back to your original question I think next year will be quite a good year for for data centers.

<unk>.

Customers are very mindful.

Securing their supplies for their scale out.

So so.

Fair amount of visibility.

More visibility even than.

Data centers.

But in addition to the training and adoption everywhere and then and then finally.

Our brand new workload, which is built on top of AI and for athletes.

Emulation is unlevered and you saw the union.

Examples of these are these are.

Real companies doing real work.

And.

And one of the areas.

That is.

The severe shortages.

Around the world as customer support just genuine severe shortages all over the world.

And so on.

The answer is omnibus avatar.

And from Islamist.

It runs in datacenter.

And further adapt our universe avatar to do.

On slide fees or retail checkout or customer service loans demonstrates the Tokyo.

Parking kiosks, you could use it for Impella operated.

Consumer service, we've demonstrated that we can see.

The industry and how you could use it for video conferencing.

And then lastly, we demonstrated how we could use on the verge of avatar for robotics.

For example to create a considers where we can drive confused because <unk> told you before.

One of your customer support until we can measure.

The omnibus avid card.

He is going to be.

A really exciting driver for enterprises in the queue.

And same with <unk>.

With senior for.

Pretty pretty Swift refrigerated.

For our next question he has Stacy Raskin from Bernstein Research Stacy Your line is open.

Hi, guys. Thanks for taking my questions I wanted.

To ask us to work them on datacenter, both near term and then maybe a little longer term on the near term collect.

You suggested guidance into Q4 will be driven by data center and gaming you mentioned datacenter first does that mean that a bigger I. If you could just help us parse.

The contribution of each of us into Q4, and then in the next year.

Given the commentary for the last question.

Again, it sounds like you've got a very strong outlook for datacenter, both from Hyperscale and enterprise.

If I look at sort of the implied guidance. We gave our datacenter for you is probably likely to grow 50% year over year in this fiscal year would it be crazy to think given all of those drivers that it could grow by a similar amount with next year as well.

How should I be thinking about that given given all of the.

All of the drivers that you've been laying out.

Okay. Thanks.

Thanks, Jason for the question, let's first.

Focus in terms of our guidance for Q4, our statements that we made.

Ah, yes about driven by revenue growth from datacenter and gaming sequentially, you can probably expect our datacenter to grow faster.

Faster than our gaming probably Boston trains.

Percentage wise.

Dollars.

We also expect RCM.

Not to decline quarter on quarter to very negligible levels.

Q4, so I hope that gives you a color on Q4 now in terms of next year.

<unk> certainly turned the corner into the new fiscal year.

We certainly can provide guidance one quarter out.

We've given some great discussion here about the opportunities in front of us opportunities with the hyperscale opportunities with the verticals on reserves.

Is a full stop opportunity.

None of us are.

We are securing supply.

For next year, not just for the current year in Q4.

To allow us to really grow into.

So much of this opportunity going forward.

But at this time, we're going to wait until next year to provide guidance.

Got it that's helpful. I appreciate it thank you.

The next question, we have feedback Arya from broker to Tracy David Your line is open.

Thanks for taking my question actually I had two quick ones.

So glad to see you.

Suggested the inventory purchase and supply agreements are up I think almost 68% year on year does that provide some directional correlation with how youre preparing for growth over the next 12 to 24 months.

So that's one question.

Then the bigger question Jensen that I have for you is where RV, indeed, AI adoption cycle.

What percentage of servers are accelerated and hyperscale vertical industry today.

They're kind of ratios that get to.

Thanks for the question. So, let's first start in terms of supply or our supply purchase agreement.

Have noted that we are discussing that we have made payments towards some of those come out that not only are re procuring score what we need in the quarter, what we need next year and again, we are planning for growth next year. So we have been planning.

That supply purchases. We are also doing long term supply purchases.

There are areas.

Capacity agreements and or many of our different suppliers.

We made a payment within this quarter of approximately $1 6 billion of total long term capacity impairments of about three point.

$4 billion. So we still have more payments to make and we will likely continue to be purchasing longer term.

To support our growth.

While planning for many years to come.

Every single server.

We will be GPU accelerated someday.

Today.

Of all the clouds and all of the enterprise.

Less than 10%.

That kind of gives you a sense of where you are.

In terms of the workloads. It is also consistent with that in the sense that you got a lot of the workloads.

Only run on Cpus.

Which is the reason why in.

In order for us to grow we have to be a force that company and we have to go.

Find applications deployment Formula Alright.

Focus on application.

This quarter acceleration or benefits tremendously from acceleration better.

They want to get a.

Millions at speed up which would challenging thing, but it's not mathematically I think I can prove it to you and historically I think you can demonstrate to you.

The.

Many many areas we have seen millionaire speedup and it has completely revolutionize this industry.

Peter graphics is of course, one of them on diverse would not be possible without them.

And so.

The work that we're doing with <unk>.

Digital biology protein synthesis, which is likely going to be one of the large industries of the world that doesn't exist today at all.

<unk> engineering.

And with protein economy is likely going to be very very large you can't do that unless you are.

<unk> able to get the millionaire speedup in simulation approaching 10 months.

So.

But those are not to mentioned not to mention them.

Some of the most imperative comes in we have to go and engage quantifying needs.

Needs a million or billion spinoff.

We're going to we are.

At a point, where we can actually tackle that and so in each one of these cases, we have to fund.

We have to focus our resources to grow.

Accelerators applications.

And that translates to growth until then we're willing to do.

Hum.

If you look at Walmart for today's speech synthesis and speech recognition system.

<unk> uses a fairly traditional were mixture of traditional.

Deep learning approaches for four CJR and videos with Veeva is the world's first my belief that it ends in deep neural network.

And we've worked with with.

Many companies in helping them advance their so that they could they could move their clouds too.

Two our neuro based approaches.

But that's one of the reasons why we do it so that we could we can provide as a reference but we can also licenses to enterprises around the world. So that they could adaptive for their own use cases.

And.

And so one.

One application after another we have to do it.

Got it.

Accelerated one domain after a multi vitamin facilities what is one of the ones that are very excited about.

Something that we've been working on for so long with UBS.

Even our own industry.

Electronic design automation for.

For the very first time, we announced the EDA using.

Using computer software and computing, whether it is because of the artificial intelligence capability because EMEA is in.

Very large come in the store optimization program.

And.

And using artificial intelligence you can do it really improves the design quality and on time.

So we're seeing from all the major engage vendors.

From chip design to simulation to.

PCB design and optimization designing synthesis.

Moving towards artificial intelligence and the GPU acceleration in a very significant way and then we see that with <unk>.

Mechanical mechanical CAD.

And.

Traditional 10 application now also.

Jumping on to GPU acceleration and getting very significant speed ups and so on.

I'm Super excited about about the work that we're doing in each one of these domains. Because every time you do it you opened up brand new market.

The customers that never never used <unk> Gpus.

<unk> opinion, because because ultimately people don't buy.

Trying to solve problems.

And without a full SaaS without softwood fatigue.

You can't really commencing enabling technologies with the chip Goodbye.

And ultimately solving for smartphone.

Your final question comes from the line of Timothy Arcuri from UBS. Your line is open.

Thanks, a lot.

A question about gross margin.

Are there any margin headwinds maybe on the wafer pricing side that we should sort of think about normal rising out.

Because gross margin is pretty flat between fiscal Q4 to fiscal Q.

Sorry, but hey fiscal Q2, and fiscal Q4, but I imagine that's kind of masking a.

Strong underlying margin growth.

Especially as data centers, but actually driving that growth. So I'm wondering if maybe there are some underlying factors that are sort of gating gross margin. Thanks.

Yes, so we have always been working on our gross margin and being able to absorb a lot of the cost changes along the way architecture to architecture near to year. So that's always baked in to our gross margin. Our gross margins right now are largely stable our incremental revenue.

For example of what we're expecting next quarter.

Mike.

Aligned to our current gross margin levels that we finished in terms of trade.

Our largest driver always continues to be mix.

We have a lot of different client mix that has arisen related to high end.

RPX solutions for example.

And the software that's embedded in solutions.

Have allowed us to increase that gross margin as we look forward long term software is sold separately can be another driver.

Margin increases in future.

But cost changes cost increases are generally been a part of our gross margin for this.

Yeah.

Thank you I will now turn the call over back to Jason Lang for closing remarks.

Thank you.

We had an outstanding quarter.

Demand for Nvidia AI has gone with.

With Hyperscale and cloud services deploying our scale and enterprises broadening adoption, we now count more than 25000 companies that are using <unk>.

And with Nvidia AI enterprise software suites are.

Our collaboration with Vmware and.

In our collaboration with Equinix to place in video launch pads.

Across the World every enterprise has an easy on ramp to Nvidia AI.

Gaming improved as our surging.

For TX opportunity continues to expand with the growing market of gamers Cree.

Creators designers.

And now professionals building home workstations.

We are working hard to increase supply for the overwhelming demand this holiday season.

Last week.

GTC showcase.

And the universe of Nvidia accelerated computing.

In combination with AI and data center scale computing. The model. We pioneered is on the cusp of producing million ex freedoms.

That will revolutionize many important fields.

Already AI.

In upcoming robotics.

Digital biology.

And what I hope climate science.

GTC highlighted our full stack expertise in action.

Built on Cuda and all.

Our acceleration libraries in data processing.

Simulation graphics.

Artificial intelligence.

Market and domain specific software as needed to solve customer problems.

We also showed.

Oh software opens new growth opportunities for us.

But the chips or the neighbors, but it's the software that opens new growth opportunities.

And video has 150 SDK is no.

Addressing many of the worlds largest end markets.

One of the major themes of this GPC was omnibus or.

Our simulation platform.

For virtual worlds and digital twins.

Our body of work and expertise in graphics.

Physics simulation.

On robotics.

And full stack computing made omnivorous possible.

At GTC, we showed her omnivorous is used to reinvent collaborative design.

Customer service avatars and video conferencing.

And digital twins of factories.

Processing plants and even entire cities.

This is just the tip of the iceberg of what's to come.

We look forward to updating you on our progress next quarter. Thank you.

Okay.

Yeah.

Thank you I will now turn over to Ken centric banking remarks.

Well I think we just heard the closing remarks. Thank you so much for joining US we look forward to seeing everybody at the conferences that we had planned.

Over the next two months and I'm sure we'll talk before the end of next earnings. Thanks again everybody.

This concludes today's conference call. Thank you all for participating you may now disconnect.

Okay.
