Jensen Huang was BFFs with everyone in Silicon Valley this year, becoming the only person to walk across all three conference stages of Microsoft, Amazon, and Google. Why? Because everyone needs his GPUs to power their AI dreams.Top 5 Shopping Tips for Amazon Prime DayGraphics Processing Units were once only coveted by PC gamers looking to max out their home setup, but now they’re the crown jewel of the most lucrative tech companies in the world. It’s a unique position to be in, but how did Jensen Huang get here? And what…

Nvidia Corp, the world's leading designer of computer chips used in creating artificial intelligence, on Monday showed new research that explains how AI can be used to improve chip design. The process of designing a chip involves deciding where to place tens of billions of tiny on-off switches called transistors on a piece of silicon to create working chips. The exact placement of those transistors has a big impact on the chip's cost, speed and power consumption. Chip design engineers use complex design software from…

Gordon Moore, the Intel Corp. co-founder whose theory on computer chip development became the yardstick for progress in the electronics industry, has died. He was 94.Moore died peacefully surrounded by family at his home in Hawaii on Friday, the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation said in a statement.A founder of industry pioneer Fairchild Semiconductor, Moore in 1968 co-founded Intel, which grew into the world's largest semiconductor maker at one point. The Santa Clara, California-based company supplies about 80% of the…

Intel Corp co-founder Gordon Moore, a pioneer in the semiconductor industry whose "Moore's Law" predicted a steady rise in computing power for decades, died at the age of 94, the company announced. Intel and Moore's family philanthropic foundation said he died surrounded by family at his home in Hawaii. Co-launching Intel in 1968, Moore was the rolled-up-sleeves engineer within a triumvirate of technology luminaries that eventually put "Intel Inside" processors in more than 80% of the world's personal computers. In an…
