It appears that the AI tailwind is showing no signs of slowing down for NVIDIA. Most of the company's Q2 2024 revenues came from the Data Center business segment, and it appears that will be the case next quarter as demand for NVIDIA H1000 AI infrastuctures remains high. “During the quarter, major cloud service providers announced massive NVIDIA H100 AI infrastructures. Leading enterprise IT system and software providers announced partnerships to bring NVIDIA AI to every industry. The race is on to adopt generative AI,” said NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang.
