NVIDIA’s $4 Trillion AI Revolution: How the Chipmaker Overtook Apple and Microsoft

Nvidia Just Hit $5 Trillion—But Can AMD or Intel Finally Crack Its AI Chip Moat?

Bloomberg’s explainer today makes the point starkly: investors pushed Nvidia past $5 trillion in late October, and the company is “on course to report more net income this year than its two main rivals will chalk up in sales, combined.” Bloomberg That valuation surge has a geopolitical shadow.

Breakthrough Performance Confirmed by Cornell GSI Technology’s Oct. 20 announcement unveiled results from a Cornell University study that benchmarked GSI’s Gemini-I APU against conventional hardware. The Cornell team ran real AI workloads (large-scale RAG) on GSI’s in-memory chip, a standard multi-core CPU, and a high-end Nvidia GPU (A6000). The result: the Gemini-I APU achieved comparable throughput to the Nvidia A6000 GPU globenewswire.com.
