NVIDIA's Blackwell architecture is delivering significant performance improvements for AI inference, particularly in handling the demands of sparse mixture-of-experts (MoE) models like DeepSeek-R1. By optimizing the entire technology stack, including GPUs, CPUs, networking, and software, NVIDIA enhances token throughput per watt, reducing costs and extending the productivity of existing infrastructure. Recent updates to the NVIDIA inference software stack, such as TensorRT-LLM, have increased throughput by up to 2.8x, leveraging innovations like NVFP4 data format and multi-token prediction (MTP). These advancements enable NVIDIA's platforms, like the GB200 NVL72 and HGX B200, to deliver industry-leading performance, efficiently supporting large AI models and enhancing user experiences. This matters because it allows AI platforms to serve more users with improved efficiency and reduced costs, driving broader adoption and innovation in AI applications.
