Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang stated that the company expects to double its chip sales next year, citing the broad adoption of AI across industries and economies. This follows Nvidia’s recent forecast of 70% revenue growth, or approximately $673 billion, for the fiscal year ending January 2028. Huang made these comments during a summit in Scotland with King Charles III, where AI safety was a key discussion point.
This projection from Huang comes as Nvidia continues to dominate the AI chip market with products like Blackwell and Rubin GPUs, alongside a diverse portfolio that includes CPUs, networking chips, and automotive AI processors. The ambitious growth forecast underscores the persistent, high demand for AI hardware globally, despite escalating concerns about AI safety.
