REUTERS/Robert Galbraithon Wednesday forecast second-quarter revenue more than 50% above Wall Street estimates, and said it is boosting supply to meet surging demand for its artificial-intelligence chips, which are used to power ChatGPT and many similar services.
But Nvidia Chief Executive Officer Jensen Huang told Reuters in an interview on Wednesday that the company had started full production of its latest AI chips in August last year, which gave it some buffer for supplies when chatbot apps exploded in popularity. Nvidia forecast current-quarter revenue of $11 billion, plus or minus 2%. Analysts polled by Refinitiv had forecast revenue of $7.15 billion.
