      Nvidia, now as valuable as Apple and Microsoft, has transformed our world, yet its story remains largely untold. This account chronicles the ascent of one of the greatest technology companies of our time. In June 2024, thirty-one years after its inception in a diner, Nvidia emerged as the most valuable corporation globally. The narrative centers on how a designer of video game equipment dominated the AI hardware market, fundamentally reshaping computing. Central to this success is CEO Jensen Huang, who, over a decade ago, gambled his entire company on AI based on promising scientific results. With unprecedented access to Huang, his associates, investors, and employees, Stephen Witt reveals the company's remarkable rise and Huang's relentless leadership, making him a pivotal figure in Silicon Valley. The account details Nvidia's evolution into a provider of hundred-million-dollar supercomputers and Huang's defiance of Wall Street to realize his radical vision for computing, leading to immense wealth. It also highlights a revolution in computer architecture driven by a small group of innovative engineers. As Huang envisions a 'next industrial revolution' powered by new microchips, the future of AI unfolds with hyper-realistic avatars, autonomous robots, and generative art. This is the story of the company shaping our future.

    • THE FOLLOW UP TO THE INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER THE AGE OF AI In his final book, the late Henry Kissinger joins forces with two leading technologists to mount a profound exploration of the epochal challenges and opportunities presented by the revolution in Artificial Intelligence. As it absorbs data, gains agency, and intermediates between humans and reality, AI (Artificial Intelligence) will help us to address enormous crises, from climate change to geopolitical conflicts to income inequality. It might well solve some of the greatest mysteries of our universe and elevate the human spirit to unimaginable heights. But it will also pose challenges on a scale and of an intensity that we have never seen - usurping our power of independent judgment and action, testing our relationship with the divine, and perhaps even spurring a new phase in human evolution. The last book of elder statesman Henry Kissinger, written with technologists Craig Mundie and Eric Schmidt, Genesis charts a course between blind faith and unjustified fear as it outlines an effective strategy for navigating the age of AI.
