"$NVDA The people who are investing in NVIDIA infrastructure are getting returns on it right away. It's the best ROl infrastructure computing infrastructure investment you can make today"

"$NVDA - So for your own services for your own stores for your own user-generated content social media platforms for your own services generative Al is also a fast ROl. And so there's a lot of ways you could think through it. But at the core it's because it is the best computing infrastructure you could put in the ground today. The world of general-purpose computing is shifting to accelerated computing. The world of human-engineered software is moving to generative Al software"

"$NVDA the world builds about $1 trillion worth of data centers. $1 trillion worth of data centers in a few years will be all accelerated computing. In the past no GPUs are in data centers just CPUs. In the future every single data center will have GPUs"

"$NVDA we need GPUs for a new computing model called generative Al that we could all acknowledge is going to be quite transformative to the future of computing. And so I think working backwards the way to think about that is the next $1 trillion of the world's infrastructure will clearly be different than the last $1 trillion and it will be vastly accelerated"

"$NVDA remember that computing is going through two platform transitions at the same time which is general-purpose computing is shifting to accelerated computing and human-engineered software is going to transition to generative Al or artificial intelligence-learned software"

"Huang And we believe that by continuing to scale the Al models that we'll reach a level of extraordinary usefulness and that it would open up realize the next industrial revolution. $NVDA"
