It's both. Jensen himself has said they aren't a GPU company anymore, highlighting their software stack. CUDA was not built in a day.

~~CUDA was not mostly 'built' by them. It was originally built on top of technology acquired by a company called Aegia. Aegia built an ASIC and a physics engine that could run instructions for the ASIC, called "PhysX" and that team ported their toolchain to run on GPUs and other ASICs.~~

CUDA was initially released in 2007, and Aegia was acquired in 2008. It would be extremely dishonest to not say that CUDA is what it is today due to Nvidia.

I get that hating on big corpos is cool on this platform, but there's no need to warp reality just to talk smack about them.
