Uber and NVIDIA have joined forces to accelerate the development of autonomous driving technologies, leveraging NVIDIA’s Cosmos platform and DGX Cloud. This collaboration aims to harness Uber’s extensive data and NVIDIA’s cutting-edge AI platforms to push the boundaries of safe, scalable, and efficient autonomous mobility.
Key Highlights:
- NVIDIA Cosmos Platform:
- Features state-of-the-art generative world foundation models and accelerated data processing.
- Purpose-built for developing physical AI systems like autonomous vehicles.
- Democratizes access to advanced tools by eliminating cost and resource barriers.
- NVIDIA DGX Cloud:
- A fully managed, high-performance AI platform with the latest NVIDIA architecture.
- Offers flexibility, portability, and productivity for AI model development across multi-cloud environments.
- Uber’s Contribution:
- Uber’s platform generates vast data from millions of trips daily.
- This data will be used to train and refine AI models for autonomous driving.
Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi emphasized the transformative potential of the partnership, stating, “Generative AI will power the future of mobility, requiring both rich data and very powerful compute. By working with NVIDIA, we are confident that we can help supercharge the timeline for safe and scalable autonomous driving solutions for the industry.”
NVIDIA’s Norm Marks, vice president of automotive, highlighted Uber’s early adoption of the Cosmos and DGX Cloud platforms, noting, “Uber is one of the first mobility leaders to embrace these platforms to accelerate the development and deployment of physical AI systems such as AVs.”
This collaboration underscores the critical role of AI in shaping the future of mobility. Uber and NVIDIA plan to release more details on their joint efforts later this year.
