A fork in the road is emerging in computing architectures that could upend the pecking order of today’s leading chipmakers. For nearly half a century, the dominant architecture for the CPU was the x86, created by Intel. Most of the world’s computers, servers and data centers use the x86 architecture. Since it has been around since 1978, introduced as part of the Intel 8086 processor, this architecture ensures that older software written for earlier x86 processors can run on newer x86 CPUs. Intel and AMD are the two largest users of x86. But a rising star is British chip designer Arm, which uses a different CPU architecture not compatible with x86

Zoox, a subsidiary of Amazon, is developing fully autonomous electric vehicles to provide transportation in the same way a taxi or Uber would.
Autonomous vehicles (AVs) are emerging as a use case for artificial intelligence, with Nvidia announcing partnerships with carmakers to develop self-driving technology using its hardware and software platform. “The AV revolution has arrived after so many years, with Waymo’s success and Tesla’s success,” said Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang during a keynote speech at CES 2025 in Las Vegas Monday (Jan. 6). Nvidia and Uber announced in a Monday press release that they will jointly develop AI-powered self-driving technology. Uber will use data from millions of trips taken in its vehicles and pair it with Nvidia’s new generative world foundation model, Cosmos. This enables Uber’s AI systems to train in virtual-world settings
