Today: Nvidia liefert starke Zahlen | Social-Media-Sucht: Metas 18-Milliarden-Vergleich
Die Wall Street kann aufatmen – Nvidias Zahlen halten den KI-Boom am Leben. Und: Zu diesen Maßnahmen für Facebook und Instagram verpflichtet sich Meta.
Nvidia's success continues to soar, driven by the AI boom. On Wednesday evening, the chipmaker unveiled its second-quarter results, revealing that its revenue had doubled to $96.2 billion by the end of July compared to the previous year. Analysts had anticipated a lower figure. Nvidia anticipates a revenue of $108 billion for the third quarter.
This news brings Wall Street some relief. If a KI bubble were to appear, it did not burst on Wednesday evening. In the podcast, Handelsblatt Chip expert Joachim Hofer explains why Nvidia has now become a kind of sentiment test for the AI market, addressing rumors about the acquisition of the AI platform Hugging Face, as well as what could be the greatest danger to Nvidia's growth.

Despite denying the accusations, Meta has nonetheless agreed to a large number of changes in the apps of Instagram and Facebook. What these changes entail and what impact this agreement could have on Instagram and Facebook users worldwide is explained by Thomas Jahn, the Co-Team Leader for Tech at Handelsblatt.
