The justices heard arguments in Nvidia's appeal of a lower court's decision allowing a 2018 class action to proceed.

The Supreme Court seems likely to keep alive a class-action lawsuit accusing Nvidia of misleading investors about its dependence on selling computer chips for the mining of volatile cryptocurrency

The case, which is in an early stage, accused the giant technology company of misleading investors about its exposure to the cryptocurrency industry.

Leading chipmaker Nvidia and SoftBank Corp , the telecommunications arm of SoftBank Group , have piloted the world's first artificial intelligence (AI) and 5G telecoms network, the two companies said on Wednesday.

SoftBank Group Corp. will be the first to build a supercomputer with chips using Nvidia Corp.’s new Blackwell design, a demonstration of the Japanese company’s ambitions to catch up on AI.

SoftBank Group is the first customer to use Nvidia's Blackwell chips, which will be used to develop an artificial intelligence supercomputer in Japan. The companies plan to build the system — which they call Japan's most powerful supercomputer — in early 2025.
