Nvidia’s Sales Forecast Fails to Meet Loftiest Estimates

Share

Nvidia guiding ~$108B and still “disappointing” tells you the AI trade is now about growth durability, not whether demand exists.

Quote of the day by PsiQuantum CEO Jeremy O’Brien: 'If you think the goal is to get to the top of the Empire State Building, you build longer ladders' — a challenge to incremental hardware progress in quantum computing

PsiQuantum’s Empire State Building analogy is a shot at incrementalism—arguing today’s quantum hardware roadmaps may never reach commercially useful scale. For CTOs with “quantum-ready” projects on the slide, this is a reminder to separate marketing hedges from real timelines and keep most of your optimization work on classical and AI rails for now.
