After briefly breaking the $3 trillion market capitalization mark in June, things have taken a negative turn for the world’s most valuable chipmaker.
Nvidia’s highly anticipated “Blackwell” B-200 artificial intelligence chip will reportedly be delayed, sending the near-term future of the entire AI industry into a state of uncertainty.
Tech news outlet The Information claims that a Microsoft employee and at least two other people familiar with the situation have stated that the new chip’s launch date has been pushed back by at least three months due to a design flaw.
While Nvidia hadn’t given a public launch date, CEO Jensen Huang recently announced that the company would begin sending engineering samples “this week” on July 31 at the SIGGRAPH event in Denver, Colorado.
