How Artificial Intelligence Is Securing NVIDIA's Position - GuruFocus.com
NVIDIA's (NASDAQ:NVDA) quarterly revenues have been surging at double-digit rates in the last three quarters and, looking at the guidance for the next quarter, it's clear that the company is expecting the growth rate to continue unabated in the near future. One of the key factors that has added fuel to their engines is NVIDIA's new growth drivers: the data center segment and auto segment. In the most recent quarter, NVIDIA's data center unit reported 151 million in sales, a growth of 109.72% The growth in data center revenues is much higher than other segments, and there are several reasons why this growth can, in fact, continue its breakneck pace for several more quarters. NVIDIA's expertise in the GPU segment has given it a range of must-have products for hyperscale data centers.
What (we think) we know about Google's new Pixel phones -- and why you should care
Google is expected to announce two new phones Tuesday, but information seemingly posted early by a British retailer may have given us all a sneak peek. All unofficial leaks, no matter where they come from, should be taken with a grain of salt. With that in mind, however, the leak from retailer Carphone Warehouse does back up a few things already suspected about the phones, according to 9 to 5 Google. The Carphone Warehouse leak, for example, supports what we have heard about the new phone's name. For several years, Google has released phones under the "'Nexus" brand name.
Google Assistant Vs Alexa: Which AI Will Control Your Home?
Google Pixel Tomorrow, Oct 4, is Google's day with the tech giant expected to launch products from new Pixel smartphones to showcase what Android can do ( and already leaked as below), to the much hyped about smart home hub, the Google Home speaker. This product, which will make use of its voice-enabled AI Google Assistant, is meant to be a direct rival to Amazon's Alexa. But as voice-control heats up, and consumers grow more comfortable running their homes by just saying what they want, tech companies are eager to be the app used to run people's lives. Images of Google Pixel phones were leaked late last night by a retailer Carphone Warehouse, before images were taken down. California has just given the greenlight to self-driving cars--without drivers.
Branding Once Meant Logos. Today, It Means AI
When was the idea of a brand born? Maybe it's always been with us--or even before us. The show has some irresistibly charming pieces on view, from human-sized Starbucks cups to a blinding neon sign reading "Bitch, you're a fan" (a reference to Madonna's Instagram account). But perhaps the most provocative piece is a comprehensive timeline of branding, all the way from 1 BC to today. The time line begins with a simple argument: that the world has always been branded.
Google set to launch branded smartphones
Google will this week launch the first smartphones that carry its own brand and design, as part of a batch of new devices aimed at competing in markets with Apple and Amazon. The new gadgets, which will include a voice-responsive "smart speaker" modeled on Amazon's Echo, are the first products of a new hardware division set up earlier this year. Google has in the past mainly developed hardware to show off its software and services and to encourage other consumer tech companies to create a mass market for the technology. But like Microsoft, whose Surface has become the leading product in a new category of tablet/laptop hybrids, Google has been drawn deeper into developing its own distinctive products. The new devices are about Google "owning more of the hardware category", said Jan Dawson, senior analyst at Jackdaw Research, though the main impetus will still be "about showing partners the way forward".
Pixel, Pixel XL Featuring Google Assistant, Modified Mobile OS Accidentally Leaked Ahead Of Google's Oct. 4 Launch Event
Ahead of Google's Oct. 4 event, the Pixel and Pixel XL that are expected to go head-to-head with the iPhone 7 handsets and Samsung Galaxy Note 7 have been accidentally leaked online. Google's new smartphones branded as Pixel, which marks the end of the Nexus line, appear to sport noteworthy specs and features. Over the weekend, Canadian carriers Bell and Telus accidentally published the pages for the new devices but immediately took them down after tech sites and consumers noticed. Despite, taking the pages down, GSM Arena reports some Reddit users managed to capture the renders of the smartphones. What's noticeable in the leaked renders is the presence of a different Google search widget.
This Android App Can Help You Text Without Typing
Five years of owning smartphones has conditioned my thumbs to navigate tiny virtual keyboards with speed and precision. I imagine many feel the same way, given smartphone owners worldwide are spending between 50 and 200 minutes every week using messaging apps. Yet an increasing number of voice dictation apps are making it easier than ever to communicate not with our thumbs, but with our voices. The latest example of such an app is TalkType, an Android keyboard created by Baidu Research and launching Monday. What separates TalkType from the myriad other smartphone keyboards out there is that its users aren't greeted with a QWERTY typing pad, but rather a round microphone icon.
