NVlabs releases cuda-oxide v0.1.0, a custom rustc codegen backend that compiles #[kernel]-annotated Rust functions to PTX through a Rust → Stable MIR → Pliron IR → LLVM IR → PTX pipeline, with single-source host+device compilation from one cargo oxide build command.

NVIDIA researchers have introduced Star Elastic, a post-training method that embeds multiple nested reasoning models — at 30B, 23B, and 12B parameter scales — inside a single checkpoint, eliminating the need for separate training runs or stored model weights per variant. Built on the Nemotron Elastic framework and applied to Nemotron Nano v3, the method trains all three variants in a single 160B-token run, achieving a 360× token reduction compared to pretraining each model from scratch. Beyond training efficiency, Star Elastic introduces elastic budget control — a novel inference scheme that uses a smaller submodel for the thinking phase and the full model for the final answer — delivering up to 16% higher accuracy and 1.9× lower latency compared to standard budget control, while nested FP8 and NVFP4 checkpoints bring the full model family within reach of RTX-class GPUs.

AI will help build the energy it needs. That’s the case U.S. Energy Secretary Chris Wright and NVIDIA Vice President of Hyperscale and High-Performance Computing Ian Buck made Thursday morning at the SCSP AI+ Expo. The 30-minute fireside chat, moderated by SCSP president Ylli Bajraktari, was called “Powering the Next American Century.” Their argument: American […]
SANTA CLARA, Calif. and CORNING, N.Y., May 7, 2026 — NVIDIA and Corning Incorporated have announced a multiyear commercial and technology partnership to dramatically expand U.S.-based manufacturing of the advanced optical […]

The US administration has added four more AI companies to its roster of favoured suppliers, with the Pentagon signing agreements with Microsoft, Reflection AI (which has yet to release a publicly-available model), Amazon, and Nvidia that mean their products can be used on classified operations. The companies join OpenAI, xAI, and Google as companies that […]

The race to build the world’s most powerful AI factories demands networking that keeps pace with the ambitions of AI itself. NVIDIA Spectrum-X Ethernet scale-out infrastructure stands at the forefront of that race as the most advanced AI networking technology available today, deployed by industry leaders who can’t afford to compromise on performance, resilience or […]
Voice AI company ElevenLabs has disclosed the full investor lineup for its $500 million Series D, originally announced in February at an $11 billion valuation. New backers span institutional giants BlackRock, Wellington, and D.E. Shaw; corporate strategics including Nvidia, Salesforce Ventures, and Deutsche Telekom; and celebrities Jamie Foxx, Eva Longoria, and Squid Game creator Hwang […]
SAP plans to buy German AI startup Prior Labs and invest heavily in it. It is also prohibiting customers' agents use to a select few like Nvidia's NemoClaw.
Enterprise AI has learned to generate. It has learned to reason. Now companies are asking the next question: How should AI act? Early agent systems have shown what’s possible, moving beyond simple prompts to take on more complex tasks. The next step is bringing those capabilities into enterprise environments — where agents must operate with […]
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang pushed back against fears of AI-driven unemployment at a Milken Institute event on Monday, arguing that AI represents America’s greatest opportunity for reindustrialization rather than a threat to workers. Speaking with MSNBC’s Becky Quick, Huang contended that automating specific tasks within a role does not eliminate the broader purpose an employee […]
The U.S. Department of Defense has signed agreements with Nvidia, Microsoft, Amazon Web Services, and Reflection AI, granting access to their AI technologies on classified networks for lawful operational use. The deals follow earlier agreements with Google, OpenAI, and SpaceX, and reflect the Pentagon’s push to build a broad, vendor-diverse AI architecture for military operations. […]
