  Unlikely. They are Taiwanese, they speak Chinese not Spanish. Also capitalisation makes it abundantly clear its a contraction of CUDA + Lithography

    Makes it abundantly clear they should have spent $100 on a branding consultant to prevent them from making newbie mistakes.

      Most of their target market has indicated they are purchasing from them. Clearly they didn't need that branding consultant.

    Actually, the capitalisation makes it look like it's Copper-Lithography, since Cu is the abbreviation for copper.

      The capitalization is cuLitho as seen in the article. The HN title seems to have suffered title-casing of the name.

    Nvidia have flexed their prowess in Spanish on one of their A.I. natural language processing presentations, to some Level-N. Nvidia is working with Nordic archivists. They have a general interest in language seems to be the driver. Archiving languages before they go extinct is a use for A.I.

    Lol. Get a sense of humor. It sounds like "little ass". NVidia is from California where 40% of the population speaks Spanish. Doesn't matter if it's "abundantly clear" when it's a hilariously bad choice. Or a hilariously good choice actually. I like it. EDIT: And don't get me started with the Orin line of chips. (Orin = Urine)

cuLitho, not CuLitho, unfortunately the auto-capitalizer on Hacker News messed it up. It perfectly follows the convention of naming a GPU-accelerated program as "cuX", "cu" for CUDA.

Seriously? "Culito" ?
