    Justice Looms Large: Nvidia in Crosshairs of US Antitrust Probe

    A US antitrust investigation is now targeting tech behemoth Nvidia, after rival companies cried foul over its alleged abuse of market dominance in the lucrative artificial intelligence chip market. The probe is focused on whether Nvidia has used its massive influence to strongarm cloud providers into buying more of its products, and whether it charges extortionate prices for networking gear if customers want to use rival AI chips.

    With a whopping 80% market share, Nvidia’s grip on the AI chip market is tighter than ever, leaving competitors like AMD and Intel seething with resentment. But will the US Department of Justice be able to bring the company to heel, or will it continue to wield its power unchecked?

    An Nvidia spokesperson dismissed the allegations, claiming that the company competes based on innovation and investment, and that its products are available to all customers. But competitors are crying foul, alleging that Nvidia’s bundling of software and hardware amounts to anti-competitive behavior.

    French antitrust enforcers are also sniffing around, and it seems likely that Nvidia will face more heat in the coming months. So, what’s next for this tech titan? Will it emerge unscathed, or will the law finally catch up with it?
