Meta (formerly Facebook) announced the creation of the AI Research SuperCluster (RSC). It is an artificial intelligence (AI) supercomputer.
“We are introducing the AI Research SuperCluster, which we believe is one of the fastest AI-powered supercomputers to date. It will be the fastest in the world once it is fully completed by mid-2022,” reads a press release posted on the company’s website.
The release notes that the development of next-generation AI capable of performing more complex tasks will require "powerful supercomputers capable of performing quintillions of operations per second."
The RSC supercomputer will allow developers to "create the best AI models that can learn from trillions of examples, work in hundreds of languages, analyze text, audio and video with ease, develop augmented reality tools, and more." According to the developers, the RSC will pave an uncertain path to creating technologies for the next majorundefined computing platform, "metaverse". Japan's fastest supercomputer so far The previous fastest supercomputer in the world was built in Japan. The Fugaku supercomputer ranked first in all major rankings for the fourth time in a row. The first time he was recognized as the fastest in June 2020. And then he was not even involved in all his blocks. Fugaku only received full power in March 2021. The supercomputer was built at the Computing Center of the Japan National Institute of Natural Sciences (Riken) in the city of Kobe. Fugaku was developed by Fujitsu Corporation together with Riken specialists. It is capable of performing over 442 quadrillion calculations per second. The supercomputer is used in several dozen projects in completely different areas. In particular, in research related to the coronavirus pandemic, in developments in the field of artificial intelligence, in forecasting uncertainties and weather, and so on. It is worth noting that Fugaku at three undefined times faster than the most powerful American Supercomputer Summit. It is installed at the US National Laboratory in Oak Ridge (Tennessee) and ranks second in the ranking. The third line is also in the American supercomputer called Sierra. In the oil and gas industry Pangea French TotalEnergie is recognized as the most powerful supercomputer. Its power is 6.7 petaflops, which is equivalent to the combined performance of 80,000 laptops. uncertain undefined
