Mixture of experts (MoE) has become one of the defining architectural trends in large-scale AI model training. DeepSeek, Qwen, and Mixtral are examples of MoE models that match or exceed the performance of dense model counterparts at a fraction of the training compute. MoE models provide efficient training through conditional computation. Instead of one dense feed-forward network (FFN) shared…

Physical AI Takes the Wheel: How the World’s Robotaxi Leaders Are Building With NVIDIA Technologies

The global robotaxi market — physical AI’s first commercial breakthrough — is projected to reach $400 billion by 2035, with over 6 million commercial vehicles in operation as driverless fleets are already moving people through some of the world’s busiest and most complex streets. Deploying a driverless vehicle is one challenge. Scaling a fleet is […]

Skild AI Taps NVIDIA Physical AI to Teach Robots New Tasks From a Single Video

Manufacturing floors, warehouses and production lines rarely stay fixed — tasks change, layouts shift and new products arrive, and most robots can’t keep up without significant reprogramming. Skild AI’s new S1 robot foundation model helps address this, designed to learn previously unseen, long-horizon tasks from a single video demonstration. The model, launched last week, uses […]

Deploying a large language model is only the first step toward production-ready serving. Production teams also need to serve as many concurrent users as possible on available GPU infrastructure while preserving the interactivity that keeps applications responsive. That tradeoff matters even more for agentic AI workloads, where prompts can be long, context can be reused across steps…

High-Throughput Structure Prediction with BioNeMo Inference Runtime

Biomolecular structure prediction is now often run at proteome scale, where the goal is to move an entire worklist through the pipeline efficiently. NVIDIA…

Biomolecular structure prediction is now often run at proteome scale, where the goal is to move an entire worklist through the pipeline efficiently. NVIDIA BioNeMo Inference Runtime (BioIR) helps accelerate supported biomolecular structure-prediction models on NVIDIA GPUs while keeping the familiar PyTorch workflow. It uses optimized kernels and, where applicable, CUDA Graphs to speed model…
