b'We take a deeper look at Nvidia, a company that has \\u2014 compared to software firms like OpenAI \\u2014 flown under the radar for both investigative and critical analysis of AI. We discuss their meteoric rise and the monopolistic control they have over the hardware for artificial intelligence through their business for GPUs but also how they have solidified that control through the closed, proprietary CUDA system for AI development. We also get into the journalistic style of great man + myth making + ironic distance that structures how these powerful companies and their \\u201cvisionary\\u201d leaders are covered by the media. Finally, we end with one word: Gooniverse.\\n\\n\\u2022\\u2022\\u2022 How Jensen Huang\\u2019s Nvidia Is Powering the A.I.
