  • Nvidia may have an advantage over peers in AI inference market
  • Bernstein analysts suggest that inferencing makes up less than 5% of AI infrastructure
  • Training continues to be the key driver of AI spend
  • Nvidia dominates generative-AI training infrastructure
  • Inference could be a setback for some Nvidia rivals
  • Nvidia’s inference made up 40% of data-center revenue over last four quarters
  • Bernstein sees long-run potential in inferencing but with uncertainties

Nvidia Corp. may have an underrated advantage in the AI market, according to Bernstein analysts. While the company dominates the AI hardware market, a new analysis reveals that spending on AI inference has trailed expectations. The analysts estimate that inferencing makes up less than 5% of AI infrastructure and will remain small for several years. Nvidia currently dominates generative-AI training infrastructure and is set to launch its new Blackwell product cycle. This could be a setback for rivals, as they have focused on inference as their long-term opportunity. However, Bernstein acknowledges that Nvidia’s inference made up 40% of data-center revenue over the last four quarters and sees potential in inferencing but with uncertainties.
