Jensen Huang believes that personal robots will follow us like in Star Wars

The chief chip designer also talked about the possibility of digital agents, which he predicts will work alongside humans. He said: “I really like the idea of ​​having a computer that gets smarter with me because it works with me over time and understands me to help me get things done.”

Elon Musk seems to agree with that view, responding to a clip of Huang’s comments on his social media platform, X, with “True.”

It’s the latest indication that Huang sees humanoid robots as the next big phase in AI development. Speaking at a technology conference in Taiwan earlier this year, he said: “The next wave of AI is physical AI.”

Nvidia created an operating system called Project Gr00t to help robots perform everyday tasks. While announcing the venture, Huang was joined on stage by nine humanoid robots at his GTC conference in March.

Earlier this year, Huang said, “The easiest robot to adapt in the world is humanoid robots because we built the world for us. We also have the largest amount of data to train these bots than other types of bots because we have the same physique. .”

Salesforce and Nvidia announced a collaboration Wednesday to develop autonomous agents for enterprises, along with interactive avatar experiences. Agentforce agents are designed to help increase productivity in sales, marketing, IT and service teams, according to a press release.

Nvidia did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Business Insider outside normal business hours.
