Uber Technologies and NVIDIA have announced a collaboration on new technologies that will support the development of autonomous vehicles based on artificial intelligence (AI).
The collaboration combines Uber’s extensive data resources with NVIDIA’s advanced technologies, including the Cosmos™ platform and DGX™ Cloud, to accelerate innovation in the mobility sector. Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi emphasized the impact of AI on the future of mobility. “Generative AI will be the foundation for the future of mobility, which requires both rich data sets and powerful computing power,” Khosrowshahi said. “By working with NVIDIA, we believe we can significantly accelerate the path to safe and scalable autonomous driving solutions.”
fuel for AI
Millions of rides are booked through Uber every day, giving the company a unique and vast source of data. This data will be combined with the capabilities of NVIDIA’s Cosmos platform and DGX Cloud, enabling AI models to be developed faster and more efficiently. The goal of the collaboration is to provide autonomous vehicle (AV) partners with more powerful and effective AI systems.
Cosmos, NVIDIA’s newest platform, delivers generative world models and advanced data and model processing tools specifically designed for physical AI systems such as robots and self-driving cars. The platform reduces costs and removes technical barriers, making innovation in the industry more accessible. In addition, NVIDIA’s DGX Cloud provides a powerful AI infrastructure that is operational out of the box. The platform offers flexible deployment options and maximizes efficiency, which is essential for developing AI models across cloud environments.

With the combined expertise of Uber and NVIDIA, the road to safe, scalable autonomous vehicles seems shorter than ever. With the power of generative AI and the extensive infrastructure of NVIDIA’s platforms, this collaboration offers hope for a future where mobility becomes more efficient, safer, and sustainable.
Norm Marks, vice president of automotive at NVIDIA, expressed his excitement about the partnership. “Uber is among the first mobility leaders to embrace these platforms to accelerate the development and deployment of physical AI systems, such as autonomous vehicles,” Marks said. “We are excited to work with Uber to strengthen the AV ecosystem with the capabilities of Cosmos and DGX Cloud.”
While both companies will further elaborate on the exact details of their partnership later this year, the announcement makes it clear that they share a vision for the future of mobility. Autonomous vehicles are no longer just a pipe dream, but are approaching a reality in which advanced AI technologies are central.
world in motion
Founded in 2010, Uber has positioned itself as an innovator in mobility since its inception. With more than 55 billion rides completed globally, the company plays a critical role in redefining how people, goods and food move through cities. This partnership with NVIDIA aligns with Uber’s broader mission to create opportunity through movement and bring the world closer together.
