Analyst firm UBS reports that the wait time for Nvidia's H100 80GB GPU for AI applications has decreased from 8-11 months to 3-4 months, indicating potential near-term growth peak but also potential trouble for future growth prospects.

Despite potential challenges for Nvidia's sequential growth, the broader AI industry is expected to continue advancing.
