I don't know when the sigmoid is going to kick in, but Nvidia's Quaterly datacenters revenues have been grown 15 folds over the past 3 years[1], and nobody including Scott believes this is sustainable for 3 more years otherwise Nvidia's market cap would conservatively be at least an order of magnitude higher than it is.

All exponential eventually becomes a sigmoid because exponential growth always expose limiting factors that weren't limiting at the beginning. Silicon manufacturing had lots of room for high-margin customers like Nvidia even a year ago (by the mere virtue of outbidding lower-margin customers), but now it is mostly gone, and no amount of money will make fabs build themselves overnight.
