NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang stated in a podcast interview released on September 23 that the market has not fully grasped the paradigm shift in computing brought about by AI, and that future computational demand will grow exponentially, potentially increasing by a billion-fold. He added that NVIDIA's computing systems are evolving into an "asset class" similar to commercial aircraft, and that building a 1-gigawatt AI factory would cost $50 billion, with an annual rental income of $40 billion to $50 billion.
