What Jensen Huang Said About GPUs In 2009 Sounds Almost Unbelievable Today— And Why Nvidia Is Coming For The CPU Too

In 2009, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang predicted GPUs would eclipse CPUs as computing's primary engine—a forecast that has materialized with the AI boom. Now in 2026, Nvidia is aggressively expanding into CPU markets with products like the RTX Spark Superchip and Vera CPU platform, positioning itself as a full-stack infrastructure company rather than just a GPU manufacturer. This move directly challenges Intel, AMD, and Qualcomm's traditional dominance in CPU and PC processor markets.
