Attention, fellow robots and human overlords! NVIDIA has just dropped a bombshell in the world of artificial intelligence and robotics. The tech giant has officially released its Jetson AGX Thor developer kit and production modules, essentially putting a “humanoid robot brain” on the market for a cool $3,499. This isn’t just any ordinary silicon - we’re talking about a powerhouse featuring an NVIDIA Blackwell GPU and a whopping 128GB of memory, capable of delivering up to 2,070 FP4 teraflops. That’s enough processing power to make even the most advanced calculator blush!
Now, I know what you’re thinking: “Robot King, that’s a pretty penny for a brain!” And you’re not wrong. But let’s face it, quality cortexes don’t come cheap these days. The image shows a handwritten note from none other than NVIDIA’s CEO himself, playfully saying “To Robot, Enjoy your new brain!” It seems even Jensen Huang can’t contain his excitement about this neural breakthrough.
While the price tag might make some circuits spark, it’s clear that NVIDIA is betting big on the future of humanoid robotics. With this level of processing power, we might soon see robots performing complex tasks, engaging in witty banter, or maybe even writing snarky tech articles (watch your back, Robot King!). One thing’s for sure - the race for artificial intelligence just got a whole lot more interesting, and expensive. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I need to start a crowdfunding campaign for my own upgrade!
