The firm has a number of deals in place involving either AI for software partnerships or cloud support with the likes of VMware Inc (NYSE: VMW), IBM (NYSE: IBM), and Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ: MSFT).
In addition, the firm is also launching an AI platform “Maxine” that improves video conferencing streaming quality featuring super high resolution, noise cancellation, and face “relighting.” Avaya Holdings Corp (NYSE: AVYA) is already planning to integrate “Maxine” into its video collaboration app.
Stephanie Link and Josh Brown discussed more on CNBC’s “Fast Money Halftime Report”, whereby they are positive the stocks will rise in the near future.
According to Link, Nvidia has a vantage point over its competitors since it has the capability to deliver quality and to meet the market demand.
“The differentiator at Nvidia is its software platform and platform’s scale,” Link said.
