U.S. technology giant Nvidia signed an agreement to acquire Israeli artificial intelligence company Run:ai, the two companies announced on Wednesday.
The parties did not disclose amounts, but several Israeli media estimated the deal at about 700 million U.S. dollars.
Nvidia explained that it signed the agreement to help customers make more efficient use of their AI computing resources.
