Competitors like AMD and Intel can’t match NVIDIA’s full-stack dominance and will pivot to niche verticals, while hyperscalers double down on in-house silicon as strategic insurance. Over the next 12–24 months, the industry faces a reckoning: as data center capex growth plateaus, sustainable advantage will shift from raw throughput to power efficiency and software lock-in—not shipment volume.
