AI Scaling Laws & The Future of Compute
Scaling laws continue to shape AI’s evolution. The bigger the model, the smarter it gets — but that also means it demands insane amounts of computing power. Jensen highlighted how test-time scaling, or applying more computing during inference, significantly enhances reasoning capabilities. This shift means models won’t just get larger — they’ll get smarter, solving more complex problems with better efficiency.
NVIDIA’s Big Bets on Reasoning AI
1. NVIDIA Dynamo: A Game-Changer for Inference Serving
LLMs are no longer just about generating text; they’re about reasoning. For that, NVIDIA launched Dynamo, an open-source inference-serving library designed to scale AI reasoning workloads efficiently. What’s the big deal?
30X boost in inference throughput (especially for DeepSeek-R1 models)
Smarter token monetization for AI factories (because serving AI at scale needs to be profitable!)
Optimized GPU distribution, so inference speeds don’t bottleneck when models get more complex
2. Llama Nemotron Reasoning Models
NVIDIA’s new Nemotron family of LLMs is built specifically for enterprise-grade AI reasoning. Key highlights:
- State-of-the-art accuracy on GPQA Diamond and MATH 500 benchmarks
- Supervised fine-tuning + reinforcement learning for better logical reasoning
- Three sizes to fit different use cases:
Nano (8B) — Small but mighty, optimized for edge and PC deployment
Super (49B) — Balanced for accuracy and throughput in data centers
Ultra (253B) — The powerhouse model for maximum reasoning capabilities (coming soon)

Not just models and frameworks, there were, as expected, some major announcements around GPUs as well
New Hardware releases
1. Blackwell Ultra GPU: The AI Reasoning Beast
Jensen introduced the Blackwell Ultra GPU, and it’s an absolute monster:
- 1.5 ExaFLOPS FP4 performance — A game-changer for LLM inference
- 288GB of HBM3e memory — More room for those massive model parameters
- Designed for reasoning workloads — This isn’t just about brute force; it’s about smarter AI
New DGX Systems for Developers
AI supercomputers aren’t just for massive data centres anymore. NVIDIA dropped two personal AI workstations that bring supercomputing to your desk:
DGX Spark — A compact AI workstation with a GB10 Superchip and 128GB unified memory for local fine-tuning and prototyping.
DGX Station — Powered by the GB300 Grace Blackwell Ultra Superchip, this beast delivers 20 PFLOPS FP4 performance and 784GB coherent memory for serious LLM experimentation.
The DGX Spark is available for reservations right now, while DGX Station will hit the market later this year through partners like Dell, HP, and Supermicro.
Building Intelligent AI Agents with Ease
NVIDIA also dropped two powerful tools to make developing AI agents smoother than ever:
AgentIQ — An open-source Python library that simplifies multi-agent AI system development. Features include:
Reusable components
YAML-based configuration
Detailed telemetry profiling for optimization
AI-Q Blueprint — A full-fledged architecture to integrate multimodal retrieval (via NeMo Retriever), optimized microservices (via NIM), and agent orchestration (via AgentIQ). If you’re building AI-powered applications, this is a goldmine.
Final Thoughts
This year’s GTC made one thing clear: the future of AI isn’t just bigger models — it’s smarter models with enhanced reasoning capabilities. Between the Blackwell Ultra GPU, Dynamo inference library, and Nemotron reasoning models, NVIDIA is giving developers all the tools needed to build the next generation of intelligent applications.
If you’re an LLM developer, now is the time to start thinking beyond just text generation. AI is evolving into something much more powerful, and with the latest advancements from NVIDIA, you’ve got everything you need to stay ahead of the curve.
