H100
The artificial intelligence (AI) market in India is projected to reach $8 billion by 2025, growing at 40% CAGR from 2020 to 2025. This growth is part of the broader AI boom, a global period of rapid technological advancements with India being pioneer starting in the early 2010s with NLP based Chatbo
The Nvidia H100 isn't just a GPU—it's the backbone of the AI boom, with mentions surging 8 in the last 30 days. PayPal slashed LLM inference costs 50% using EAGLE3 speculative decoding on H100s. DARPA leased 50 units for biological AI. Google Cloud and TurboQuant also rely on it. Yet the dependency is a risk: AWS admits it never retired an A100 server amid chip shortage, and Oracle just nabbed $16B for a Michigan data center to rival Google Cloud. Vertiv's acquisition of Thermal Labs for liquid cooling signals the H100's insatiable demand for infrastructure. The question: can Nvidia's supply chain keep pace before competitors like AMD or custom ASICs erode this moat?
