AI farms are another step in the development of artificial intelligence. They use so -called supercomputers, i.e. the most modern machines with powerful computing power, such as “Helios” from the AGH dig. – It has computing power, which can be compared to 50,000 laptops – he said about the latest episode of “Techpospolita” on TVN24+ journalist Mateusz Półchłopek.
– Very complicated calculations require gigantic computing power that supercomputers provide. These are research, among others In the field of physics, chemistry – in this way scientists will learn the universe, work on progress in medicine. Supercomputers are used to design valve in the heart, to look for new substances, medicines, vaccines – mentioned Mateusz Półchłopek.
Supercomputer helios Helios from the AGH Cyfronet is in the third place in the global Green500 list of the most ecological supercomputers. It was on him that the white -tailed whiteness was trained.Nigric

“Progress in science would be definitely slower”
– During the coronavirus pandemic, all computer centers, including the digh digh digh, made their computing power to scientists, it was the highest priority. Generally, if not for the supercomputers, then the progress of science would be definitely slower – the TVN24 journalist pointed out.
Mateusz Półchłódek watched the most powerful supercomputer in Poland at the Cyfronet AGH Academic Computer Center.

– It is he who has computing power, which can be compared to 50,000 laptops. However, this is also not the way Marek Magryś, the head of the AGH dighrone, explained to us that you can buy 50,000 used laptops and somehow assemble them a supercomputer. It does not work like this, of course, 'commented on half
– Our interlocutor Marek Magryś. He estimates that Helios' power will be able to find on a smartphone in about 20 years. But does this mean that in 20 years the supercomputers will also be so small? Absolutely not. They will be even bigger than today. Why? Because, of course, this miniaturization will proceed, but this limit is of course somewhere, and the demand for more and more computing power will be. The supercomputer will consist of an even larger number of such elements, it will take up physically more space, will use even more energy – he said.
– Our interlocutor compares supercomputers to the reading room for AI. Such a language model must, before it starts to function, analyze, and read individual databases. The supercomputer allows it – he emphasized.
