# AI Infrastructure Can Keep Earning Across Hardware Generations by Ian Buck > "NVIDIA accelerated computing delivers value across generations. CoreWeave's NVIDIA V100 GPUs are still running customer workloads nearly a decade after Volta launched, even as CoreWeave brings Vera Rubin NVL72 into production. That's the strength of the NVIDIA platform: infrastructure that keeps earning for years, and the flexibility to put the right GPU on the right workload." > **— Ian Buck**, *From Training to Production, NVIDIA and CoreWeave Close the Loop on Agentic AI, September 30, 2026* ## Sources and Context - **Direct publication:** [From Training to Production, NVIDIA and CoreWeave Close the Loop on Agentic AI](https://blogs.nvidia.com/blog/coreweave-agentic-ai-vera-rubin/) — published September 30, 2026. - **Exact published statement:** “NVIDIA accelerated computing delivers value across generations.
