Designs GPUs and full-stack AI computing systems (chips, networking, software) that train and run AI models in data centers.
Earns most of its income from data-center systems sold to a small number of large cloud companies, with chips, networking and software bundled so buyers adopt a whole computing platform. It designs but does not manufacture: TSMC makes its chips. Gaming graphics cards, the original business, are now the smaller line.
Moat: wide (scale, network effects, installed base). CUDA software lock-in and sustained AI-chip performance leadership make its accelerators the default AI platform.
