A new algorithm can further exploit the twin challenges of information loss and translation to mimic a quantum computer with far fewer resources than previously thought. It was previously though that quantum computers with 50-100 logical low error qubits would be able to surpass regular supercomputers. New algorithms are showing that regular computers could beat …
Oracle CEO Larry Ellison described using Oracle using Tesla Cybertruck as a next-generation police car. He says it will be very safe, very fast and it already has all of the cameras and screens that Oracle’s software needs. The details will be disclosed when the Cybertruck is fully revealed. Oracle has created emergency vehicles and …
Tesla is starting production of the Dojo AI training Supercomputer next month. Tesla will have 13 Exaflops of AI training by the end of 2023 and 100 Exaflops by the end of 2024. Jan 2023 3 Exaflops of AI compute, 10,000 Nvidia A100 June 2023 5.5 Exaflops, 17,000 Nvidia A100 Oct 2023 13 Exaflops, 40,000 …
El Capitan will drive unprecedented advancements in HPC and AI, powered by the next-generation AMD EPYC CPUs and Radeon Instinct GPUs. It will be a 2 exaflop supercomputer for Lawrence Livermore Labs. It is expected in 2023 and is costing $600 million. This and the Frontier 1.5 exaflop supercomputer are huge victories for AMD. Intel …
The AI startup Cerebras has shown that a single wafer-scale Cerebras CS-1 can outperform one of the fastest supercomputers in the US by more than 200 times for physics simulations and many AI applications. They had 0.86 PetaFLOPS of performance on the single wafer system. The waferchip was built on a 16 nanomber FF process. …
There was a lot of hype and promise around memristors and HPE bet huge amounts of research around creating a new computer paradigm around memristors and memory driven computing. The last major flurry of information and presentations from HPE was in 2018. From 2014-2018, HPE launched memory driven computing that was supposed to leverage memristor …
A lot of resources will be needed to create an Artificial General Intelligence. There are many efforts to make various narrow super-intelligence. Narrow Superintelligence are AI-related software systems that are beyond humans in some area of activity. Google makes a beyond human capability search engine. Google is a trillion-dollar company. Tesla is leading the way …
IBM says they could use 250 petabytes of memory and the best supercomputer to match a 53-qubit Google quantum computer on a particular problem. Scott Aaronson notes that this clearly shows that quantum supremacy is clearly emerging. IBM paper says the 200 Petaflop Summit at Oak Ridge National Lab with its 250 petabytes of hard …
Using HPL-AI, a new approach to benchmarking AI supercomputers, Oak Ridge National Laboratory’s Summit supercomputer system reached 445 petaflops or nearly half an exaflops. The system’s official Linpack performance is 148 petaflops announced in the new TOP500 list of the world’s fastest supercomputers. Summit, the world’s fastest supercomputer, NVIDIA ran HPL-AI computations in less than …
Researchers at Los Alamos National Laboratory have created the largest simulation to date of an entire gene of DNA, a feat that required one billion atoms to model and will help researchers to better understand and develop cures for diseases like cancer. “It is important to understand DNA at this level of detail because we …
Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) has bought Cray Supercomputers. Cray Research was started in 1972 by the legendary supercomputer expert Seymour Cray. HPE and Cray want to lead in the Exascale era. The promise of Exascale is more than a single gigantic supercomputer or a performance milestone. It is the ability to take advantage of the …
