It’s nearly impossible to have a conversation in the high-performance computing (HPC) space (or any space for that matter) without artificial intelligence (AI) creeping into the discussion. The technology’s versatility has skyrocketed its overall deployment, and as such, AI can seem like a miracle cure that’s come to solve all computing problems. Of course, this ... Full article
The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted a critical gap in our ability to effectively predict and respond to emerging infectious diseases. The devastating impact of the pandemic serves as a lasting reminder. However, as we move past COVID-19, other viruses or new mutations could still pose a threat. With virus outbreaks capable of emerging and evolving with ... Full article
The intersection of AI and healthcare reached an exciting new milestone this week, as a new and groundbreaking genomic foundation model was unveiled at the JP Morgan Healthcare Conference in San Francisco. Cerebras and Mayo Clinic have collaborated to develop a world-class genomic foundation model aimed at harnessing the power of advanced AI and HPC ... Full article
The recent wildfires in Los Angeles County have highlighted the complex role of artificial intelligence in both fighting fires and potentially contributing to the conditions that fuel them. AI has emerged as a promising tool for wildfire prediction and resource allocation, but its substantial energy and water needs raise valid concerns in a state already ... Full article
Scientific researchers are responsible for conducting experiments and making discoveries that improve our lives or, sometimes, even save them. However, the process of scientific research — from forming and testing a hypothesis to making groundbreaking discoveries available for public or commercial use — is complex, costly, and time-consuming. Without the right tools at their disposal, ... Full article
At the 2025 CES event, Nvidia announced a new $3000 desktop computer developed in collaboration with MediaTek, which is powered by a new cut-down Arm-based Grace CPU and Blackwell GPU Superchip. The new system is called “project DIGITS” (not to be confused with Nvidia's Deep Learning GPU Training System: DIGITS). The platform offers a series ... Full article
AI is the new digital, Accenture says in its latest Technology Vision 2025 report. This 25th edition of the company’s research, titled “AI: A Declaration of Autonomy,” frames AI as not only a pivotal technology but also a catalyst for entirely reshaping workflows and business processes. AI will permeate every part of the enterprise, with its transformative ... Full article
Despite the hype around generative AI, studies show just a fraction of GenAI projects have made it into production. A big reason for this shortfall is the concern organizations have about the tendency for large language models (LLMs) to hallucinate and give inconsistent answers. One way organizations are responding to these concerns is by implementing ... Full article
In the race to develop increasingly powerful AI systems, there’s been a growing fascination with building machines that not only mimic human abilities but can even surpass them in certain areas. We’ve long been captivated by the idea of machines that can think, learn, and reason like us. However, as we push these systems to ... Full article
Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI, starts 2025 with a bold declaration for the future of artificial intelligence. According to Altman, OpenAI is now confident in its understanding of how to create AGI (artificial general intelligence) and is shifting focus toward the next frontier: superintelligence. OpenAI's latest model, o3, which was unveiled in December and is ... Full article
