The state of quantum is full of promise and in a constant flux, so much so that it’s hard to keep track of. In this webinar, we have Julliette Peyronnet of French ….

Good Martin Luther King Day (US) to you! Chips in their many forms and the manufacturing of them dominated the HPC-AI industry last week, here’s a quick (9:51) review of recent developments: Cerebras lands $10B OpenAI deal, Taiwan pledges $250 billion ….

This presentation misses the most glaring issue with commercial software providers, such as ANSYS, namely that their licensing models are extremely out of touch with the pace of Moore’s law. Add into that mix the fact that they want to ala carte you to death for things like GPGPUs.
Rich – here is a great little side project for you. Track commercial software cost against hardware costs. With hardware, costs scale, with software it sadly misses the boat. You can spend $1.5M for something in the 100TF range for an fully depreciated life over 36 months. Commercial CAE software to run on that cluster (CFD, Crash, FEA, Chemistry) can hit you with that same number yearly.
