Join us in Austin for the #HPC Leadership Institute at TACC September 16-18th! We've got a great program and are excited to share it with YOU! cvent.me/qnoreo

First keynote at Hot Chips by OpenAI. Very clear message: scaling laws tell us to keep pushing + believe in exponentials! the next generation will have to deal asap with massive power and reliability challenges (need 2 OOM more compute very soon). Serious fun ahead 😎

Intel ended last year with 124,800 people TSMC had 76,478 employees and AMD 26,000 The two companies combined had fewer employees than Intel while making better x86 chips, an actually competitive GPU, and making chips for everyone else on earth, including Apple and Nvidia

It turns out this #AI stuff does help productivity ... #GenAI #GPT #GithubCopilot

Fascinating insight into the role of the FIA scrutineers as a key part of the #F1 story

Why do C programmers have a hard time understanding chemistry? Because the periodic table has no Element zero.

Congratulations, Torsten Hoefler 🇨🇭, on receiving the Max Planck-Humboldt Medal! #HPC

How about an AI that can translate over-fancy restaurant menus into simple descriptions of the actual food?
