Nvidia's Internal GPU War

It is wild to think that even the company fueling the entire AI gold rush is struggling with its own supply chain. We always talk about the "chip shortage" in terms of Microsoft or Meta waiting for H100s, but hearing that Nvidia's automotive division is fighting for compute internally puts things into perspective.

What's interesting here is the strategic tension. Most companies would just chase the immediate revenue from data center clients, but Nvidia is consciously carving out capacity for "zero-dollar businesses"—markets that don't exist yet but could be worth trillions, like full autonomy. It shows they aren't just playing a hardware game; they are aggressively hedging their bets on the future of robotics and mobility. When the CEO has to step in as a referee for GPU clusters, you know the stakes for these internal projects are incredibly high.
