📰 Uber and Nvidia Partner to Accelerate Autonomous Driving
Partnership combines Uber’s data and Nvidia’s AI platforms to accelerate autonomous vehicle innovation.
Uber UBER 0.00%↑ and Nvidia NVDA 0.00%↑ have announced a groundbreaking collaboration to advance AI-driven autonomous driving technology. By merging Uber’s massive dataset, derived from millions of daily trips, with NVIDIA’s cutting-edge Cosmos platform and DGX Cloud, the partnership aims to significantly enhance the efficiency and scalability of autonomous vehicle (AV) development.
“Generative AI will power the future of mobility, requiring both rich data and very powerful compute,” said Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi. “By working with Nvidia, we can accelerate the timeline for safe, scalable autonomous driving solutions.”
Nvidia’s Cosmos platform is designed specifically for physical AI systems, such as autonomous vehicles and robotics. It offers state-of-the-art generative models, tokenizers, and accelerated data processing tools while eliminating cost and resource barriers, making advanced AI tools more accessible. Meanwhile, the DGX Cloud provides a flexible, high-performance AI platform preconfigured with Nvidia’s latest architecture, allowing AV partners to build robust AI models quickly and efficiently.
“Uber is among the first to embrace these platforms, setting the stage for faster development and deployment of AV technologies,” said Norm Marks, NVIDIA’s vice president of automotive.
As the partnership unfolds, Uber and Nvidia are poised to play a central role in shaping the future of mobility. Additional updates on the collaboration are expected later this year.
