People play games seriously. People host tournaments. People watch other people play and listen to broadcasters talking about it. The kind of entire ecosystem we see around other sports and forms of entertainment has formed around games as well.
Obviously the thing that\'s cool about games - a basketball game is just a basketball game. The thing about video games is that each different video game can be in a completely different genre.
I will say that Surface has been a big disappointment for us and for Microsoft. Both of our expectations from the product were much greater than what came to be and not only that. We invested enormous amount into research and development and spent a lot of time and energy into it.
We have a good sense of the pulse of the industry. We know what\'s going on out there. We know that deep learning adoption is broad. It\'s going into production at scale.
Well, the world of entertainment and leisure is gigantic. When you combine it with all of the aspects of entertainment and leisure, going to movies or traveling or going to restaurants, staying in a hotel, skiing, it\'s huge.
Some people say the network is the computer. We believe the display is the computer. Anywhere there\'s a pixel, that\'s where we want to be.
Gaming notebooks aren\'t that abundant. Not that many gamers are able to play on notebooks.
I already have a job and being the CEO of Nvidia is a great privilege. It is once in a life time opportunity.
A smart car is not just about giving you information, but it is also about keeping you safe.
When you increase productivity, economies become better - local economies become better, society becomes better.
The single most important thing for any processor is getting adoption by software developers.
The Xbox is how the computer will be built in the next 20 years. More semiconductor capacity will go to the user experience.
I believe that the future is about having a whole bunch of A.I., not one A.I. We\'re all going to have our own personal A.I. We\'ll have A.I. for many fields of medicine, for many fields of manufacturing.
The automation of automation, the automation of intelligence, is such an incredible idea that if we could continue to improve this capability, the applications are really quite boundless.
People are going to use more and more AI. Acceleration is going to be the path forward for computing. These fundamental trends, I completely believe in them.
I\'m the product of my parents\' dreams and aspirations.
It\'s very clear that AI is going to impact every industry. I think that every nation needs to make sure that AI is a part of their national strategy. Every country will be impacted.
Safety is not just about trying really hard and being really careful. You have to design technology that makes it possible for a computer to be safe.
Manufacturing all over the world has the benefit of efficiency. That\'s great. I support it.
I think culture is a big word for corporate character.
One of the things I\'m excited about is the observation that gamers are creators and creators are gamers too. We used to think of creators as workstation customers and think of gamers as consumers.
Business comes and goes and we make a strategic decision that could lead you to whole new place.
We\'re going to design future cars the way people design airplanes. Except we have to use so much technology and ingenuity to reduce its cost and its form factor. We can\'t afford to have a jet plane. That would be great if could.
But I think we\'re going to have people who work from home a couple of days a week, three days a week, four days a week. And I\'m perfectly comfortable with all that.
Performance matters because games are built on great performance, but form factor and energy efficiency matter incredibly because they want to build something that\'s portable and transformable.
Every market we go to, we have a domain-specific language. Every domain-specific language, underneath, has an architecture.
AI as a technology is complex, of course, but the capabilities and benefits of AI aren\'t hard to understand.
We\'re very careful to what domains we\'ll build to serve. I completely believe in domain-specific architectures.
Can we all please - I don\'t want anybody buying cryptocurrencies, okay? Stop it. Enough already. Or buy Bitcoin, don\'t buy Ethereum.
I happen to believe that video games will be the largest sport and entertainment in the world. The reason for that is a video game can be every sport. You can be anybody.
