W aves OF INNOVATION often create giants. Microsoft rode the upsurge in desktop computers, as Apple did with the smartphone. Artificial intelligence ( AI ) may well be the next big technological shift, transforming the way businesses are run and society functions. If so, plenty of firms selling the software and hardware that underpin AI stand to gain. But none is better positioned than Nvidia, an American firm that makes specialist AI chips. Its market value briefly passed $1trn this week. Will AI sweep Nvidia to big tech-dom?
W的创新大道经常创造巨人。Microsoft像Apple使用智能手机一样，在台式计算机中巡回演出。人工智能（AI）很可能是下一个重大的技术转变，改变了企业的运行方式和社会运作方式。如果是这样，那么许多公司出售基于AI的软件和硬件要获得的公司。但是，没有比制造专家AI芯片的美国公司Nvidia更好的位置。它的市场价值本周短暂通过了$ 1Trn。AI会将NVIDIA扫向大型技术吗？
