He posted on **X** that "Corning is so good" and added that despite competition from Google and Amazon, "Nvidia's tough to beat." > Corning is so good… Nvidia, well, i think that Google and Amazon still have an opponent with multiple legs up.. i know they are all customers but wow, Nvidia's tough to beat > > — Jim Cramer (@jimcramer) May 7, 2026 The investment follows months of warnings from Nvidia’s CEO that traditional copper-based connections inside AI factories are reaching their performance limits. By backing Corning's optical and glass technologies, Nvidia aims to improve high-speed connectivity and efficiency in next-generation AI data centers. GLW closed at $182.40 on Thursday, up 0.46% for the day, with shares gaining 12.9% over the past five days and 22.81% over the past month, according to Benzinga Pro. **Read Also: Nvidia's $1 Trillion Promise May Just Be The Start — Ask Goldman Sachs** ## **Amazon And Google Continue Building AI Alternatives** **Amazon Web Services** remains one of Nvidia's largest customers, with plans to deploy 1 million Nvidia GPUs beginning this year through 2027. The deal also includes Nvidia networking technologies such as **Spectrum** chips and **ConnectX** systems. Meanwhile, Google is accelerating its custom Tensor Processing Units strategy. Alphabet CEO **Sundar Pichai** last month told investors, "The fact that we own frontier models and own the silicon really helps us stay ahead of the curve." **Google Cloud** is also expanding external TPU sales, marking a more direct competitive challenge to Nvidia's hardware leadership. ## **Nvidia Maintains Powerful AI Market Lead** Despite growing competition, Nvidia's ecosystem — spanning GPUs, networking, software and now optical infrastructure — remains unmatched. Chinese firms are reportedly paying nearly $1 million per Nvidia **B300** server amid surging AI demand, reinforcing Nvidia's pricing power globally.
