Kodiak AI, Inc., (Nasdaq: KDK), a leading provider of Physical AI, with a focus on AI-powered autonomous vehicle technology, today announced NVIDIA technology will help power Kodiak's next-generation autonomous-driving solution.

Kodiak intends to accelerate the deployment and scaling of driverless vehicles with the NVIDIA DRIVE Hyperion architecture, a production-ready reference platform that is underpinned by two NVIDIA DRIVE AGX Thor centralized computers. Built on the Blackwell architecture, DRIVE AGX Thor delivers up to 1,000 INT8 TOPS / 2,000 FP4 TFLOPS of AI compute. This massive compute headroom is optimized for the latest generative AI, transformer, and Vision Language Models (VLM), enabling the Kodiak Driver to interpret nuanced and unpredictable real-world conditions in real time to enable safe and verifiable driving behavior.
