    Why Jensen Huang and NVIDIA's Full-Stack AI Factory Cannot Help European Artificial Intelligence

    At GTC Berlin, Jensen Huang called on Europe to become an AI producer and plans to invest an additional US$2 billion in Europe (after previously investing US$8 billion), but NVIDIA's full-stack AI factory is an integrated platform on which European companies can only build application-layer products. The article argues that NVIDIA is too powerful, which instead suppresses local European competition, and that Europe lags behind the United States and China in chips, large models, and financing.

    Why Jensen Huang Can't Help European AI

    It is difficult for Jensen Huang and Nvidia to help Europe build a local AI ecosystem, and the core reason is that Nvidia is too powerful: the full-stack AI factory it delivers covers GPUs, CUDA-X libraries, and the model layer, so European companies can only build the application layer on top of it. Europe lacks chip companies that can compete head-on with Nvidia, and the representative model company Mistral AI has not gained global recognition. Nvidia has previously invested 8 billion US dollars in Europe and will add another 2 billion US dollars in the near term, but the funds are spread across dozens of companies in multiple countries, so the effect is limited.
