![]() ![]() ![]() And there are more than 400 commercially available GPU-accelerated applications that benefit from our software libraries, as well as hundreds more game titles. A million-plus developers have already downloaded our CUDA toolkit. Our goal with these updates: Make more of our capabilities available to more developers. These touch on everything from deep learning to self-driving cars and embedded computing (see ' NVIDIA Details Major Software Updates to Sharpen GPU Computing's Cutting Edge '). We call this body of work the NVIDIA SDK, and Jen-Hsun described a series of major updates that it's getting. While NVIDIA hardware has long made headlines, our software is key to advancing the state of the art in GPU-accelerated computing. Mass General, the nation's largest research hospital, has an archive of some 10 billion medical images - a perfect target for deep learning. It's set up a clinical data center, with NVIDIA as a founding partner, that will use AI to help diagnose disease starting in the fields of radiology and pathology. 'Pascal's throughput and interconnect will make the biggest rocket we've seen.'Ī key early customer for DGX-1 is Massachusetts General Hospita l. ![]() 'AI computers are like space rockets: the bigger the better,' said Baidu Chief Scientist Andrew Ng. Underpinning DGX-1 is a revolutionary new processor, the NVIDIA Tesla P100 GPU - the most advanced accelerator ever built, and the first to be based on the company's 11 th generation Pascal architecture.īased on five breakthrough technologies - which Jen-Hsun smilingly called 'miracles' - the Tesla P100 enables a new class of servers that can deliver the performance of hundreds of CPU server nodes.Ī group of AI industry leaders - including Facebook's Yann LeCun and IBM's John Kelly - have already voiced support for the product. He noted more than 20 cloud-services giants - from Alibaba to Yelp, and Amazon to Twitter - that generate vast amounts of data in their hyperscale data centers and use NVIDIA GPUs for tasks such as photo processing, speech recognition and photo classification. Over the course of a 2 hour talk, he described the current state of AI, pointing to a wide range of ways it's being deployed. The DGX-1 is easy to deploy and was created for one purpose: to unlock the powers of AI and bring superhuman capabilities to problems that were once unsolvable.' It will open up markets to benefit everyone. 'It changes every industry, every company, everything. 'Artificial intelligence is the most far-reaching technological advancement in our lifetime,' Jen-Hsun told the audience. ![]()
