      Nvidia, now as valuable as Apple and Microsoft, has transformed our world, yet its story remains largely untold. This account chronicles the ascent of one of the greatest technology companies of our time. In June 2024, thirty-one years after its inception in a diner, Nvidia emerged as the most valuable corporation globally. The narrative centers on how a designer of video game equipment dominated the AI hardware market, fundamentally reshaping computing. Central to this success is CEO Jensen Huang, who, over a decade ago, gambled his entire company on AI based on promising scientific results. With unprecedented access to Huang, his associates, investors, and employees, Stephen Witt reveals the company's remarkable rise and Huang's relentless leadership, making him a pivotal figure in Silicon Valley. The account details Nvidia's evolution into a provider of hundred-million-dollar supercomputers and Huang's defiance of Wall Street to realize his radical vision for computing, leading to immense wealth. It also highlights a revolution in computer architecture driven by a small group of innovative engineers. As Huang envisions a 'next industrial revolution' powered by new microchips, the future of AI unfolds with hyper-realistic avatars, autonomous robots, and generative art. This is the story of the company shaping our future.

    • Ein Musikpirat, ein mächtiger Plattenboss, eine revolutionäre Erfindung und eine illegale Webseite, die unfassbare Datenmengen anbietet. Spannend wie ein Krimi erzählt Stephen Witt zum ersten Mal die wahre Geschichte hinter der Revolution in der Musikindustrie: Wie die Handlungen einiger weniger Menschen sich zufällig so überkreuzten, dass am Ende der von niemandem beabsichtigte Niedergang der Musikindustrie durch mp3 und Internettauschbörsen stand.
