Bojan’s talk charts the evolution of NVIDIA's GPUs from enhancing gaming experiences to catalyzing the AI revolution, highlighting the pivotal role of GPUs in the breakthrough of neural networks, exemplified by the development of AlexNet in 2012. It discusses the transition towards AI-centric cloud computing and the advent of serverless platforms. Concluding with an optimistic outlook, it portrays AI as a transformative force. Bojan, a member of NVIDIA since 2012, has played a significant role in shaping the landscape of cloud architecture. Originating as one of the architects behind the success of GeForce NOW, the preeminent game streaming service boasting a user base exceeding 30 million globally, he has been a driving force in the evolution of key initiatives like the NVIDIA GPU Cloud (NGC). Currently spearheading NVIDIA Cloud Functions, a state-of-the-art serverless platform that converts deep learning models and CUDA code into secure cloud services, Bojan's prior leadership experience at HP overseeing the largest private cloud for compliance document archiving further underscores his extensive and impactful contributions to the field. He earned an M.S. in Electrical Engineering from the University of Belgrade. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.
