    What's the story

    Reliance Industries's Mukesh Ambani recently sat down for a chat with semiconductor giant NVIDIA's CEO Jensen Huang at the AI Summit India in Mumbai, engaging in a discussion about the future of AI in India and beyond.

    During the talk, Ambani gave his own spin to the chipmaker's name. He connected NVIDIA to 'vidya,' a Sanskrit word for knowledge.

    He also added said Huang's efforts are ushering in a new 'age of intelligence.'

    CEO's response

    Huang's reaction to interpretation

    Huang loved the interpretation and said he was excited to have chosen the right name for his company.

    Huang was thrilled with Ambani's take on NVIDIA being 'vidya.' He said, "I knew I had named the company right...22 years ago I knew this!"

    Despite the initial doubts about the name NVIDIA, Huang was firm on his decision. "I knew it, I stuck with it," he said

    To this, Ambani jokingly offered that Huang could indeed 'take credit for it.'

    Further explaining his interpretation, Ambani connected 'vidya' to Saraswati, the Hindu goddess of knowledge.

    He implied that sincere devotion to acquiring knowledge could bring prosperity, represented by Lakshmi, the goddess of wealth in Hinduism.

    Huang jokingly said that with this explanation, the story of NVIDIA has finally been revealed to people.
