Tesla will spend $500 million to build one of its so-called “Dojo” supercomputers at its Buffalo, New York factory, the state’s governor Kathy Hochul said Friday during a news conference just days after CEO Elon Musk called the project a “long shot.” Tesla’s decision was “informed by New York’s reliable power supply, strong talent pipeline and availability of usable space for the project,” according to Hochul’s office. Dojo, which was first announced at Tesla’s “AI Day” event in 2021, is a…

Tesla has announced a new $500 million project to build a giant Dojo supercomputer cluster at Gigafactory New York in Bufallo. Dojo is a new supercomputer designed from the ground up by Tesla specifically to train AI with videos. The project suffered significant delays, but it seemed to be getting some momentum last year as the first Dojo cluster came online in the summer. However, we also learned that Tesla let go of some of the program’s top leadership last month. Furthermore, CEO Elon…

Since the 1940s, neural networks have evolved significantly, from the early concepts of McCulloch and Pitts to Frank Rosenblatt's perceptron in the 1950s. Major advancements in the late 20th century, like the development of the Backpropagation method, set the stage for modern deep learning. The introduction of the transformer architecture in 2017's "Attention is All You Need" by Google researchers marked a turning point in Natural Language Processing (NLP), leading to the development of powerful models like BERT and GPT.…

Our brains are remarkably energy efficient.Using just 20 watts of power, the human brain is capable of processing the equivalent of an exaflop — or a billion-billion mathematical operations per second.Now, researchers in Australia are building what will be the world's first supercomputer that can simulate networks at this scale.The supercomputer, known as DeepSouth, is being developed by Western Sydney University.When it goes online next year, it will be capable of 228 trillion synaptic operations per second, which…

Tesla’s head of Dojo hardware has left the company, and he was possibly let go over issues with the next generation of the supercomputer, according to a source. Ganesh Venkataramanan was hired at Tesla by Jim Keller and company when Elon Musk wanted to build a chip-making team to support its self-driving effort. He participated in the development of Tesla’s self-driving chips, but more recently, he was in charge of the Dojo supercomputer hardware. Venkataramanan’s official role at Tesla was…

By Max Planck Institute of Molecular Cell Biology and Genetics (MPI-CBG) November 24, 2023Scientists have developed an innovative algorithm to solve equations of active matter theory, providing insights into how biological materials like cells and tissues attain their shape. This algorithm, part of a decade-long research effort, is implemented in an open-source supercomputer code, making it widely accessible. It marks a significant advance in understanding the behavior of living materials and could lead to the development…

The bar, when it comes to supercomputers, is about to be raised in a big way.Meet Aurora, a computer that, when it is fully operational, will be able to perform 2 billion billion (technically, 2 quintillion) operations in a single second. And speeds that fast could lead to Aurora assisting in unimagined scientific breakthroughs.The system is being built outside of Chicago by Intel and Hewlett-Packard. It has a footprint that’s the size of two tennis courts and weighs an estimated 600 tons and ultimately will run 60,000…
