Nokia believes it will play a crucial role in connecting Nvidia’s data centers to artificial intelligence (AI), through the “cutting-edge technology” it develops. This is the phase after 5G, called 6G.
The guarantee is from John Harrington, executive vice president of Nokia, in statements to “Eco“. He himself discussed the most recent partnership established with the North American company, which acquired 2.9% of Nokia’s capital through an investment in the order of one billion dollars.
At stake is a strong commitment to linking AI to data centersat a time when “the telecommunications supercycle with 5G is already mature”he highlights. In any case, this is not the first partnership between the two technologies, as they already worked together through Nscale, the company that will bring an Nvidia data center to Sines.
Remember that Nokia’s reinvention involves stopping producing smartphones. The company is now developing technology that allows connections to graphics cards, which can be found (by the thousands) in data centers.
