Prior to Computex, Nvidia invited members of the media to a briefing on upcoming announcements for gaming and AI. We've already gone over the RTX 5060 launch today, so now our attention turns towards Nvidia's latest AI software updates.
The Nvidia AI PC software stack now covers over 750 games and applications, making use of RTX GPUs' accelerating hardware. For instance, TensorRT still provides best-in-class AI performance with gains of up to 2x compared to DirectML. TensorRT for RTX will be available to developers in June, offering an optimised inference backend for PCs running AI applications.
The new NIM for RTX container will further aid development efforts, with pre-packaged generative AI models, optimised for TensorRT. NIMs and AI blueprints will be available to download via Nvidia's own website, as well as through partners.
Project G-Assist also continues to grow. This is Nvidia's locally-run AI digital assistant for PCs. Through new plugins, users can now use G-Assist in conjunction with popular apps like Discord, Twitch and Spotify, as well as more professional apps like IFTTT, Gemini, SignalRGB and penRGB.
The tools for developers to build their own plugins are now publicly available, so we should see even more functionality added to G-Assist over time.

KitGuru Says: As Leo noted during Nvidia's keynote presentation, the primary focus now is AI, with gaming starting to feel like a footnote in Nvidia's plans. With that said, some AI projects do intersect with gaming, like Project G-Assist.
