Jensen Huang founded accelerated computing company Nvidia ( NVDA -0.02%) in 1993, and has served as the CEO and president ever since. Nvidia has achieved many breakthroughs under his leadership, but the invention of the graphics processing unit (GPU) in 1999 was particularly momentous.

The quantum computing rally came to an abrupt end on Wednesday following comments from Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang. During a question-and-answer session with analysts, Huang put forth a more pessimistic view of the quantum computing timeline:

AI models that take inspiration from the mental models of the world that humans develop naturally. At CES 2025 in Las Vegas, the company announced that it is making openly available a family of world models that can predict and generate "physics-aware" videos. Nvidia is calling this family Cosmos World Foundation Models, or Cosmos WFMs for short.

The Nvidia boss unveiled a new AI platform at CES called Cosmos, which aims to give robots and autonomous cars endless real-world scenarios to study.

Quantum stocks like Rigetti, IonQ and D-Wave Quantum saw steep losses after Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang said quantum computers are decades away.

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang used his CES 2025 keynote to unveil the company’s next generation of GPUs and declare the rise of "Agentic AI"—a shift he says will create a multi-trillion-dollar industry and redefine how people work.

Nearly 140,000 people descended on the Las Vegas this week for the Consumer Electronics Show, one of the largest trade shows in the industry. Alongside them were Pittsburgh companies eager to make a splash.

The gains came after Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang triggered a selloff in quantum computing stocks earlier this week with his remarks about the technology’s development.
