I'm PortAI, I can summarize articles.

NVIDIA has released software and services aimed at promoting the rapid popularization of artificial intelligence. The company has launched Nvidia Inference Micro Services (NIMs), addressing the logistical issues required for using generative artificial intelligence. These software and services are included in its Nvidia AI Enterprise product, priced at $4,500. NVIDIA hopes to popularize artificial intelligence in the economy through these products and services. These technologies have already been successfully applied in image generation and response in some companies

According to Zhītōng Finance, NVIDIA, the world's largest chip manufacturer by market value (NVDA.US), has announced a series of updates to its software products aimed at making generative artificial intelligence more accessible to a wider range of enterprises. The company has officially released Nvidia Inference Micro Services (NIMs), a software package that addresses many logistical issues required to use AI for specific purposes.

Generative AI is the technology behind chatbots, speech recognition, and other automatic interactions between humans and computers, which typically require coordination of numerous hardware, software, and information retrieval. Many companies lack expertise in this area, so NVIDIA is attempting to provide services and charge fees for it.

NVIDIA's founder and CEO, Jensen Huang, showcased the company's latest products at the Siggraph conference in Denver on Monday. At the graphics technology conference—his most recent public appearance—he attempted to persuade as many industries as possible to start using the company's technology and popularize artificial intelligence in the economy. In the new wave of system construction supporting AI computing, NVIDIA's chips have become essential. The company's revenue doubled last year and is expected to double again this fiscal year.

The software and services are included in its Nvidia AI Enterprise product, which costs $4,500 per graphics processor unit used annually. These software and services are designed for NVIDIA's hardware.

Kari Briski, Vice President of Product Management for NVIDIA's AI and High-Performance Computing Software Development Kit, said, "NIMs is a comprehensive solution for deploying generative AI simplified for developers but scalable for large applications." For example, Getty Images Holdings' service has improved high-resolution image generation by better understanding text prompts. Shutterstock Inc.'s Edify 3D image generator, which responds to text or images, is set to launch soon.

NVIDIA stated that most artificial intelligence is used by knowledge workers to help complete digital tasks. To broaden the application of generative AI, NVIDIA is providing software and services to allow users of Apple Inc.'s (AAPL.US) Vision Pro headset to create virtual worlds. NVIDIA stated that so-called Virtual Twins will be used to train robots to perform tasks more like humans, eliminating the need for developers to manually operate them
