ParTec AG and the Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf (HZDR) have signed a memorandum of understanding to jointly build and operate an AI supercomputer. The aim is to create a central contact point for the development of innovative AI technologies that will promote both the scientific and commercial use of artificial intelligence (AI) in Saxony and Germany. ParTec is equipping the project with a powerful AI computer that will perform around 500 petaflops or approx. 50 exaflops 8FP. The computer, named "Elbjuwel", would be one of the most powerful AI computers in the world.
An AI computer is a powerful computer that has been specially developed to process tasks in the field of artificial intelligence (AI). These computers are equipped with powerful processors and GPUs that are optimized for training and executing AI models. AI computers can be used for various applications, such as machine learning, neural networks, image and speech recognition and data analysis. They are particularly important for research and development projects where large amounts of data need to be processed and complex algorithms need to be executed.
