On June 16 NVIDIA released Cosmos open world foundation models (including Cosmos Reason 2, a leaderboard-topping reasoning VLM), over 1,700 hours of multi-geography driving data, and a 455K synthetic protein-structure dataset on GitHub and Hugging Face, with permissive weights and data. For anyone working outside frontier chat, in robotics, AVs, or simulation, this is a rare large open drop aimed right at embodied work. (NVIDIA Blog)

On June 22 NVIDIA released open models, datasets, and tools across the Nemotron family, including training data for the Llama Embed Nemotron 8B embedding model and an updated LLM Router blueprint that auto-directs requests to the best model for a job. (NVIDIA) The broader cont...
$12,930,300,000. Not "about $13 billion." That exact figure is in Jensen Huang's September 3 post, and the precision is the first sign this is a signed agreement rather than the leak-stage reporting we got in late August. NVIDIA's blog frames the platform in the numbers that m...
NVIDIA and AWS announced June 23 that NVIDIA's cuVS library now powers GPU-accelerated vector indexing as the default in Amazon OpenSearch Serverless, claiming up to 10x faster index builds at roughly a quarter the cost versus CPU-only, making billion-scale vector DBs buildabl...
Announced July 27 with Microsoft, IBM, Red Hat, Palantir, CrowdStrike, Cloudflare, Databricks, Hugging Face, LangChain, Nous Research, Reflection AI, Thinking Machines Lab, SpaceXAI and the Linux Foundation. Huang's framing is pointed: during the Hugging Face incident "closed...
The abliteration tool gained 215 stars to reach 30,103, but the stronger signal is downstream: the HF trending endpoint returns DavidAU/Qwen3.8-27B-TURBO-Fable-Cold-Fusion-735-882-Heretic-Uncensored-NM-DAU and Momoking/Qwen3-VL-32B-Heretic-MiniMax-H3-NVFP4, both naming the too...
Huang used his inaugural X post on July 24 to publish "Open Weights and American AI Leadership," a three-page letter on Nvidia's own servers signed by 25 companies including Meta, Microsoft, IBM, Mistral, Mozilla, Hugging Face, a16z, Palantir and the Linux Foundation. Within a...
