So which one is more powerful, the Models/Data or the Infrastructure? Topic 3 - Is it possible that NVIDIA could start building their own cloud? Do they potentially want to own a more vertical experience?  Topic 4 - Obviously the buildout costs are enormous, but are they that much different from what the Big 3 are trying to do in retrofitting existing data centers, or hiring to build their own mini-Nuclear reactors? Topic 5 - Who could potentially be a partner to NVIDIA in building out this type of cloud in the near-term? (Equinix, national governments, cities-of-the-future, sovereign wealth funds, etc.) FEEDBACK?Email: show at the cloudcast dot netTwitter: @thecloudcastnet
