Intel, despite showing transformation ambitions with its 18A process and Gaudi 3 accelerator, faces significant execution challenges and cannot shake NVIDIA&rsquo;s competitive advantage in the short term. For investors, NVIDIA is the most direct beneficiary of the AI supercycle, while Intel is only suitable for patient capital willing to take on higher risk and bet on a long-term turnaround.</p> <hr> <h2 id="why-does-nvidia-still-sit-firmly-on-the-ai-chip-throne-in-2026">Why Does NVIDIA Still Sit Firmly on the AI Chip Throne in 2026?</h2> <h3 id="how-deep-is-nvidias-moat">How Deep Is NVIDIA&rsquo;s Moat?</h3> <p>NVIDIA&rsquo;s competitive advantage comes not only from hardware performance but also from its complete software and hardware ecosystem. The CUDA software platform has become the standard tool for AI developers, with millions relying on its libraries and frameworks, creating extremely high switching costs. Even if competitors launch hardware with stronger specifications, the lack of CUDA software support makes it difficult to attract developers to migrate. This &ldquo;hardware plus software&rdquo; strategy gives NVIDIA over 80% market share in AI training and inference.</p>
