More than a year after the artificial intelligence boom began, developers are still seeking access to Nvidia's chips, signing deals with many major and emerging cloud providers, or using their own chips. You may even purchase it. But as businesses continue to pay a lot of money for this hardware, some are realizing that they need to quickly generate a return on their costs. That could lead some companies to look for cheaper alternatives to Nvidia's chips, such as chips being developed by companies like AMD and Amazon Web Services.
The Information's cloud computing reporter Anissa Gardizy and executive editor Amir Efrati discuss all these trends and more in a live conversation with industry executives.
