At 10:30 AM Beijing time on January 7 (Tuesday), Jensen Huang, founder and CEO of NVIDIA, will deliver the opening keynote speech at CES 2025.

As the world's largest consumer electronics show, CES, known as the "Spring Festival Gala of Technology," attracts numerous tech giants and innovative companies every year. This year's CES 2025 will grandly open in Las Vegas, USA, on January 7 local time and will last until January 10. Jensen Huang's keynote speech will undoubtedly be a highlight of this year's CES.

Highlights of Jensen Huang's CES speech are as follows:

1. Jensen Huang launched the next-generation GPU RTX 5090 based on the Blackwell architecture, with the high-end model RTX 5090 featuring 92 billion transistors, providing 3400 TOPS computing power and 4000 AI TOPS (trillion operations per second) performance, priced at $1999.

2. The prices for RTX 5070, RTX 5070 Ti, RTX 5080, and RTX 5090 are: $549 (approximately 4023 yuan), $749 (approximately 5489 yuan), $999 (approximately 7321 yuan), and $1999 (approximately 14651 yuan). Among them, the RTX 5070 has the same performance as the previously priced $1599 RTX 4090, representing a 1/3 price reduction.

3. Introduced the latest key interconnect technology NVLink72 based on the Blackwell architecture. The number of transistors reaches 130 trillion, with 72 Blackwell GPUs providing 1.4 ExaFLOPS TE FP4 computing power, equipped with 2592 Grace CPU cores.

4. Demonstrated Agentic AI with "Teat-Time Scaling" functionality, supporting tools such as calculators, web search, semantic search, SQL search, and even generating podcasts.

5. Launched the Nemotron model, including the Llama Nemotron large language model, divided into Nano, Super, and Ultra tiers.

6. Jensen Huang stated: AI agents are likely to become a trillion-dollar industry, and I bet stockholders will be very happy.

7. Introduced the world foundational model Cosmos, which is open-source and commercially usable, capable of converting images and text into actionable tasks for robots, seamlessly integrating visual and language understanding to perform complex actions

8. Announced manufacturers collaborating in the automotive field, including domestic car manufacturers such as BYD, Li Auto, Xiaomi, and ZEEKR. It was stated that Toyota will develop the next generation of new energy vehicles based on NVIDIA chips and operating systems.

9. Launched the next generation automotive processor "Thor", a revolutionary robotic computer designed to handle large amounts of sensor data.

10. Released the world's smallest personal AI supercomputer—Project Digits. Jensen Huang stated that this supercomputer is equipped with the new Grace Blackwell super chip, supporting individuals to directly run large models with 200 billion parameters, and two Project Digits can run a large model with 405 billion parameters.
