Science and Technology Desk: Not a convention hall or a business meeting, but at the dinner table, the three owners of the tech world, Larry Ellingson, Elon Musk and Jensen Huang, have taken some surprising decisions. In the next few years, artificial intelligence (AI) will have big surprises.

Recently, Larry Ellingson confirmed that these three billionaires had a detailed discussion on the future of AI in a restaurant in California, USA, and later assured each other of coordination and cooperation.

On the one hand, Larry Ellingson, CEO of the world's popular data center Oracle, and Elon Musk, the owner of Tesla, the leader of electric cars, on the other hand, were joined by Jensen Huang, CEO of the famous chip company Nvidia. The main topic of discussion was that, with the help of Nvidia, these two companies want to improve the concept of AI in the future world.

Earlier, Oracle stated that their goal is to ensure that AI can be brought to market in the most cost-effective manner possible. Of course Musk's account is twofold — on the one hand, adding AI to Tesla's auto-driving; On the other hand, the new company AIX created a stir around the world.

Realizing the tech dreams of the two billionaires requires a lot of AI-making chips. And the monopoly of these chips is now in the possession of Huang's company. Therefore, Ellingson and Musk tried their best to keep relations with Huang warm by inviting them to dinner.

Yahoo Finance reports that Ellingson and Musk are working to bring to market an AI with human-like intelligence. But both of them need a lot of graphics processor chips (GPU) to make this feat successful. No matter how many crores of rupees these two billionaires have, the best quality powerful GPUs can be found only from Nvidia. That's why, sitting at a table with Huang, organizing so much.

Currently, Oracle has 162 data centers. The company plans to increase this number to 2 thousand in the coming days. Oracle currently needs 32,000 GPUs in these data centers to power AI. According to Nvidia, not only 32,000, but the chip company will provide 132,000 GPUs step by step to speed up Oracle's work. But Oracle will have to wait for that.

Elon Musk's dream, on the other hand, is to add powerful AI to Tesla's self-driving cars, which will become a direct replacement for human drivers. The company needs 50,000 GPU chips within this year to realize its dream of self-driving software. And Nvidia could be the best supplier of GPUs — that's Musk's belief.

The problem is, Nvidia hasn't been supplying chips to the market for a long time to keep up with Ellingson's and Musk's demand. Tech analysts believe that the two companies are pushing Nvidia for the chip at an accelerated pace.

According to them, until now Tesla and Oracle were not major customers of Nvidia. Suddenly, in the last few months of this year, the chip company will have to go through a big campaign even if they want to fulfill the desperate request they made to Huang.
