Quoting Jensen: "All of these platforms are processing DataFrames. This is the ground truth of business. This is the ground truth of enterprise computing. Now we will have AI use structured data. And we are going to accelerate the living daylights out of it." Polars DataFrames are at the core of the AI revolution. youtube.com/watch?v=jw_o0xr8…

Truly awesome to see Jensen in his GTC keynote present @nvidia's joint partnership with @IBM to use cuDF to accelerate open source Velox and the Presto SQL engine in watsonx, showcasing how @Nestle achieves 5X faster queries for 83% less cost. Amazing collaboration between the Nvidia and IBM teams to make this a reality, and we're just getting started.

NVIDIA won Deep Research Bench with NVIDIA AI Q and Nemotron 3 models. A blog is under way.
Very proud that a cross NVIDIA effort led to top positions in Deep Research Bench I and II. DRB-I evaluates overall report quality: comprehensiveness, insight, instruction-following, and readability whereas DRB-II is more difficult and tests for information recall, analysis, and presentation. This was led by David Austin and @raja_biswas from my team. I contributed a bit. We will share more ASAP. huggingface.co/spaces/muset-… agentresearchlab.com/benchma…

We also verified that GPT-5.2 Pro (High) is SOTA for ARC-AGI-2, scoring 54.2% for $15.72/task (Due to API timeouts, we were unable to reliably verify GPT 5.2 Pro X-High on ARC-AGI-2) All verified GPT-5.2 family scores: arcprize.org/leaderboard

🎉 Huge congrats to our NVIDIA team “NemoSkills” for winning the AIMO-2 Competition 🏆 on @Kaggle. Their system solved 34 out of 50 problems in just 5 hours using 4 L4 GPUs. 🔢✨⏱️ kaggle.com/competitions/ai-m… How? A powerhouse squad—Christof Henkel, Darragh Hanley, Ivan Sorokin, Benedikt Schifferer, Igor Gitman, Shubham Toshniwal, and Ivan Moshkov—combined expertise in LLM training, data generation, and KGMON insights. Their final test set performance even beat earlier public results, proving they don’t overfit.👏 More details on the final solution are coming soon.💡 @kagglingdieter, @gonedarragh, @igtmn, @shubhamtoshniw6, and @i_vainn
