Hyundai and Nvidia join forces to revolutionize the sustainable mobility sector by leveraging the opportunities offered by the use of Artificial Intelligence
Hyundai, the South Korean automotive giant, has forged a strategic alliance with Nvidia, the American company that no longer wants to limit itself to being a mere chip manufacturer and aims to become a relevant player in the field of AI. Together, the two companies They will drive progress in the development of autonomous driving and in the creation of smart production plants where robotics plays a fundamental role.
This collaboration comes shortly after Nvidia revealed similar agreements with Uber, Stellantis, and Foxconn to develop robotaxis, and confirmed that Mercedes-Benz and Lucid will integrate their technology into luxury cars with Level 4 autonomous driving capabilities. Now, Hyundai Motor Group has not wanted to be left behind. also jumping on the innovation bandwagon to focus on the development of advanced mobility solutions, the optimization of production plants and other advances related to the semiconductor sector.
The project has the backing of the South Korean government and will be part of a national AI cluster. with an estimated investment of $3.000 billion at the current exchange rateThis ecosystem will include a Hyundai-managed Physics AI Application Center, an Nvidia Technology Center, and several specialized data centers in the region.
Nobody wants to miss the AI train
The South Korean government is convinced that combining the country’s strong manufacturing base with Nvidia’s cutting-edge AI infrastructure will create a collaborative model that benefits local companies and accelerate digital transformation across multiple industrial sectors.
For his part, Jensen Huang, founder and current CEO of Nvidia, has not hesitated to state that AI It will revolutionize all aspects of the industry in the coming years.From vehicle design and production to robotics and autonomous driving, Nvidia’s CEO is convinced that, together with Hyundai, one of the world’s leading providers of mobility solutions, they will make progress in building smart production plants that will define the future of the automotive industry.
At the heart of this alliance, Hyundai will create an “AI factory” based on 50.000 Nvidia Blackwell GPUsThis advanced computing infrastructure will manage the entire AI lifecycle. This includes data collection, training, fine-tuning, and large-scale inference. Nvidia calls these platforms “AI factories” because of their ability to generate value from information.
Using technologies like Nvidia Drive AGX Thor, DGX, Omniverse, and Cosmos, Hyundai will develop digital twins of its factories to integrate robotics and optimize processes. It will also recreate driving environments for simulations, accelerating the refinement of new autonomous driving systems.
