NVIDIA details the RTX Spark ecosystem ahead of the Oct 16 laptop launch: up to 128GB unified memory and 1 petaflop of AI compute. Agent apps (GitHub Copilot, Hermes, OpenClaw, Perplexity, Pi, WorkBuddy) get streamlined setup with OpenShell/MXC sandboxing and Switchyard local-cloud routing. Nemotron 3.5 Bolt 74B-A9B (74B MoE, 9B active, 2-bit, 24GB) ships Oct 15 fully open source. NVIDIA PAIR exits beta with llama.cpp support and LAN-wide AI pooling. Adobe apps get up to 2x acceleration, plus Broadcast 2.3, ComfyUI frame generation, DLSS 5, and Blender 5.3 ray reconstruction. Local LLM downloads are already 5x all of last year.
