Demystifying AI with NVIDIA’s Will Ramey - Ep. 113

GTC Digital

The transformation of NVIDIA's GTC conference into a digital platform has significantly broadened access to AI learning and development. Will Ramey explains that the shift was prompted by the COVID-19 pandemic, leading to an online event with over 150 sessions, including live presentations and pre-recorded content 1. This digital format has attracted more than 30,000 participants, surpassing the usual in-person attendance in Silicon Valley 2.

We're really excited about this kind of new generation of online digital learning experiences that we're able to deliver.

The initiative has also enabled global access to NVIDIA's Deep Learning Institute workshops and courses, supported by cloud resources from partners like Microsoft Azure 2.

   

AI Resources

NVIDIA offers a wealth of resources for developers to enhance their AI skills, primarily through its Deep Learning Institute and developer programs. Will Ramey encourages joining NVIDIA's developer program to access a vast array of resources and an online community 3. The Deep Learning Institute provides self-paced courses and instructor-led workshops, covering topics from deep learning to autonomous vehicles and healthcare 3.

This kind of training covers not only the deep learning and accelerated computing use cases that we talked about, but also we have courses in developing self-driving cars, autonomous vehicles and robots.

Additionally, NVIDIA is developing a recommendation service to help developers quickly find the resources they need, similar to how Netflix recommends content 4.
