NVIDIA (NVDA) and Thinking Machines Lab have entered a multi-year strategic partnership, according to an announcement on Tuesday. As part of the partnership, Thinking Machines Lab has also agreed to deploy at least one gigawatt of Nvidia’s Vera Rubin systems. Thinking Machines Lab is an artificial intelligence startup that Murati founded last year, and it aims to make AI systems that are “more widely understood, customizable, and generally capable. NVDA shares are trading slightly higher on Tuesday, up a shy under 2%.
“Thinking Machines has brought together a world-class team to advance the frontier of AI,” Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang said in a statement. “We are thrilled to partner with Thinking Machines to realize their exciting vision for the future of AI.”
Nvidia (NVDA) continues to lead the way for the ongoing AI boom, with its stock becoming a favorite on The Street. YTD, NVDA is down 2% after a slow start to the week. However, shares are up over 73% in the last year, and a further 1,300% since March 2021. Its recent investments in select AI startups and companies like OpenAI and now Thinking Machines Labs have proven beneficial, and the AI giant does appear ready to let up on forking out investments.

Wall Street is presently bullish on Nvidia stock to continue its rebound, thanks to these investment decisions and the continued AI reign. Recently, Nvidia stock received a ‘strong buy’ rating from Barclays analyst Thomas O’Malley with a price target of $275. The analyst recommended clients take an entry position into NVDA at its current price of $170-177. He remains bullish on the equity due to domination in the AI sector, and several tech titans depend on its services for their survival.
At $184, Nvidia NVDA is trading near the top of its 52-week range and above its 200-day simple moving average. The demand for Nvidia stock remains strong, with retail and institutional investors making a beeline for investment. Similar to how it delivered stellar gains from 2020 to 2025, traders believe it could replicate from 2026 to 2030. The AI tech is the key to the belief that the advancement of the next-gen tools lies in the hands of the company. Therefore, an investment at its lowest price point, and a waiting period of five to 10 years, could be rewarding.
