Germany bets on “physical AI” with a state-funded Nvidia partnership

Germany is laying the groundwork for a state-backed partnership with Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) and about 12 other indigenous AI labs to fund “physical AI” for use by robots and autonomous vehicles. The government is looking to provide funding to the tune of hundreds of millions of euros, per Handelsblatt. Two goals: train robots, train industrial models The idea is divided into two main categories . One is to set plans in place for physical AI, which is the computing used by AI labs to train robots and self-driving vehicles. The second is to build industrial AI models with the strength and capacity to compete with its international counterparts. Based on reports, the money is meant to cover expenses for compute and model training.
