Ahead of Nvidia's highly anticipated Global Technology Conference, the world-renowned technology company gave fans a new look at some powerful next-gen GPUs. These new GPUs are powered by AI, something Nvidia has become increasingly interested in over the last few years. To excite fans and future customers, Nvidia has revealed its new AI GPUs early.

Over the last several decades, Nvidia has continued to help usher in the next generation of video games and computer technology, offering a wide range of powerful, performance-driven products. More powerful tools allow developers to continue to push the limits of the medium, with incredible features like ray tracing quickly becoming standard in modern video games. The arrival of artificial intelligence prompted Nvidia to start tinkering with new technologies, creating even more powerful products and impressive AI generative tools.

All eyes were on Nvidia ahead of its Global Technology Conference, which welcomed roughly 16,000 members. However, according to Reuters, Nvidia had already given developers a sneak preview of its latest generation of AI GPUs before the show. Prior to its annual conference, Nvidia showcased its upcoming Blackwell AI GPUs. Significant advancements were made to the firm's CUDA platform as well. Nvidia sees its Blackwell GPUs as the next evolution in the industry, calling it a big «AI weapon» of the market.

Specifically speaking, Blackwell GPUs will feature HBM3e memory, upgraded specs, and other enhanced features.
