Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang addressed more than 500 guests at the conference yesterday before delivering "a big surprise". Actually there were two sets of surprises. The first one was that Huang called up 12 teams of researchers and presented each with an Nvidia Pioneer Award. The Nvidia CEO talked about how the researchers are using deep learning to solve numerous problems and that they are "truly amazing". He went on to say how Nvidia is dedicated to creating a computing platform to further AI research. Recipients of the prizes have previously or are currently participating in the global Nvidia AI Labs (NVAIL) program.
Moving swiftly to the second surprise announced by Huang, 20 guests were "selected at random," to join him in the hotel's courtyard. Each lucky guest was presented with a signed, limited edition 'Nvidia Titan V CEO Edition GPU'.
