K-젠슨, 한국과 'AI 미래' 그렸지만...리스크도 상존 / YTN

[Anchor] CEO Jensen Huang stated that he would share the future with major Korean companies through alliances in the fields of robotics and AI infrastructure. However, concerns are also being raised that dependence on Nvidia could become excessive, ranging from AI accelerators to data centers and major platforms. Reporter Park Ki-wan reports. [Reporter] Memory semiconductors were not the only focus for Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang during his visit to Korea. He saw opportunities in the fact that Korea possesses an excellent environment and technological capabilities across the entire manufacturing sector, including robotics and data center construction. [Jensen Huang / Nvidia CEO: Without our technology, it would be impossible to build such advanced supercomputer data centers in Korea. Now that we have formed an excellent partnership, we will grow this industry together.] The areas in which he pledged cooperation with major domestic groups were also focused on physical AI and artificial intelligence infrastructure. NVIDIA has agreed to collaborate with LG and Doosan on the development of everything from robot components to industrial robots, and with Hyundai Motor Group to secure leadership in Software-Driven Vehicles (SDVs) and future mobility. Naver and SK Telecom are contributing to the construction of large-scale AI data centers utilizing NVIDIA’s AI accelerators. SK Hynix has also signed a partnership to develop memory semiconductors for NVIDIA products. The key point is that all of these companies are expanding their robot development and IT infrastructure by using NVIDIA’s products or leveraging NVIDIA’s AI platforms and technological capabilities. In essence, all businesses involved in developing new technologies and establishing data hubs are taking place on the foundation of NVIDIA’s technological prowess. This aligns with NVIDIA’s recent efforts to expand its "NVIDIA universe" using AI accelerators as a link. The expansion of its product line to include CPUs and even AI PCs also reflects a determination to solidify its global leadership in the AI ​​era. [Jensen Huang / NVIDIA CEO (October 7): This is NVIDIA’s truly beautiful RTX 5070.] [It is very thin and very smart.] Because of this, there are concerns that the domestic AI ecosystem might become dependent on Nvidia technology before it can properly establish itself. In the U.S., an anti-Nvidia coalition including Antropics, Google, and Intel is currently engaged in a power struggle, but in Korea, there are no suitable means to respond to this. However, advice has been given that it is more realistic to avoid falling behind in the AI ​​era, just as Samsung Electronics collaborated with Google instead of insisting on its own smartphone operating system. [Kang Jung-soo / Head of AI Research Center at Mediasphere: We are opening this (AI era) together; we cannot open it standalone. We are forming a partnership to open up future possibilities right now. We need to start making plans on how to realize this from now on…] It remains to be seen whether our companies, facing the massive wave of the AI ​​era, will survive by hiding behind Nvidia, or become true partners joining hands to venture further out into the ocean.
