Nvidia’s Groq Deal Is an Instagram Moment—With 1 Big Risk — Barron’s
Nvidia’s licensing deal with chip start-up Grok is reminiscent of Facebook’s Instagram acquisition. That’s the good news—and the bad news.
*While we still don't know how LPUs can be integrated into NVIDIA's offerings, one way to do it is by offering them as part of rack-scale inference systems (similar to Rubin CPX), paired with networking infrastructure. This would allow GPUs to handle prefill/long-context, with LPUs to focus on decode, essentially meaning that in inference tasks, NVIDIA has everything sorted out. This could transform the image of LPUs from an experimental option to a standard inference method, ensuring their widespread adoption among hyperscalers.* No, NVIDIA Isn't Acquiring Groq, But Jensen Just Executed a 'Surgical' Masterclass That No One Was Expecting
