Jensen Huang amplified the argument that NVIDIA compute is fungible, durable, highly rentable, and a productive revenue-generating asset.
The quoted data point: the H100, a three-year-old training chip, has seen its hourly rental price climb 22% in a month to $3.28 — the market paying a premium for hardware that depreciation schedules assume only loses value, a signal of how tight compute demand is.
