Nvidia is unveiling plenty of new stuff at CES, and most of it centers around cars. One of its most interesting announcements is AutoSIM, the virtualized testing environment it uses to drive more hours in simulation than anyone ever could using real cars on real roads.

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang described AutoSUN as a kind of “Inception” of virtual environments at a press Q&A, referring to the movie about dreams within dreams. The layers of Nvidia’s AutoSIM, however, aren’t dreams – but are instead virtualized AI agents operating within larger virtual environments, and running virtualized augmented reality software, too.
