    Jensen Huang announced during his keynote speech at CES 2026 that the
    Vera Rubin NL72 machines are now in production <https://www.tomshardware.com/tech-industry/artificial-intelligence/nvidia-ceo-confirms-vera-rubin-nvl72-is-now-in-production-jensen-huang-uses-ces-keynote-to-announce-the-milestone>.

    These are part of the rCLDGXrCY platform, which you will also see on
    machines being resold by other vendors. That tag means rCLLinux-onlyrCY:
    these high-powered supers and workstations arenrCOt like those rCLCopilotrCY PCs that Microsoft is so desperate to sell you: those are for
    consuming AI apps, while these beasties are for developing them.

    AI things may move a different way with less hardware, in the news today:

    AI may not need massive training data after all
    Building AI more like the human brain may matter far more than flooding it with data.

    Summary:
    New research shows that AI doesnrCOt need endless training data to start acting more like a human brain.
    When researchers redesigned AI systems to better resemble biological brains,
    some models produced brain-like activity without any training at all.
    This challenges todayrCOs data-hungry approach to AI development.
    The work suggests smarter design could dramatically speed up learning while slashing costs and energy use.

    Actually it is not 'news' was obvious long ago.
    But if you hold shares in Nvidia ?
