JUPITER, Europe’s first exascale supercomputer at Germany’s Forschungszentrum Jülich, runs on NVIDIA Grace Hopper Superchips and NVIDIA Quantum-X800 InfiniBand networking — and it’s had a busy year. As the international supercomputing community gathers at ISC in Hamburg this week, four projects running on JUPITER point to what exascale computing can actually do: map the human […]

The next era of AI will not be defined by compute alone. Its growth will be determined by energy. As accelerated computing scales across AI factories, agentic AI, industrial AI, edge computing and physical AI — including robotics and autonomous systems — global electricity demand is rising at unprecedented speed. In many regions, expanding grid […]

AI will help build the energy it needs. That’s the case U.S. Energy Secretary Chris Wright and NVIDIA Vice President of Hyperscale and High-Performance Computing Ian Buck made Thursday morning at the SCSP AI+ Expo. The 30-minute fireside chat, moderated by SCSP president Ylli Bajraktari, was called “Powering the Next American Century.” Their argument: American […]
