Leading chipmaker Nvidia and SoftBank Corp , the telecommunications arm of SoftBank Group , have piloted the world's first artificial intelligence (AI) and 5G telecoms network, the two companies said on Wednesday.

SoftBank Group Corp. will be the first to build a supercomputer with chips using Nvidia Corp.’s new Blackwell design, a demonstration of the Japanese company’s ambitions to catch up on AI.

Nvidia’s (NVDA) new artificial intelligence chip has its first customer, which plans to build the most powerful AI supercomputer in Japan.
