According to CoinMeta, NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang responded to external doubts about its expanded funding support for the AI ecosystem in the program “Mad Money”, stating that critics overlooked the special capital needs of the AI industry. He mentioned that these are among the first batch of startups that require billions of dollars to get off the ground and hundreds of billions of dollars to become profitable. The development and deployment of AI itself necessitate a substantial amount of funding. NVIDIA has currently invested in model developers such as OpenAI and Anthropic, and provides financial support for data center projects. For instance, it has provided $105 billion in support for a large computing power park in Ohio leased by OpenAI. NVIDIA is also collaborating with major financial institutions on Wall Street, planning to arrange up to $500 billion in financing for data centers. Jensen Huang pointed out that cutting-edge AI laboratories represent an investment opportunity that comes only once in a generation. NVIDIA hopes to become an equity investor and partner in these projects and to support these companies in building and expanding their ecosystems on the NVIDIA platform. Even if some of the supported companies face operational difficulties, the related computing infrastructure can be transferred to other customers and workloads, so NVIDIA faces relatively low risks. He stated that these investments are expected to generate considerable returns.
