KAUST brings back the Middle East's first Gordon Bell Prize

The FCC proposes subsidizing broadband access for the poor; Google introduces some pretty fantastic technology; and the latest supercomputing news. Those are just a few stories we explore on our Tech Shift Week in Review. We’re joined by Argonne’s Deputy Director for its leadership computing facility, Susan Coghlan, as well as our WBEZ super digital guy, Tim Akimoff. 

Tech Shift Week in Review: Subsidized internet, new Google gadgetry and supercomputing

Welcome to the exciting world of AI with your host, Shailendra Kumar, also known as Shaily! 🎙️ Today, we're exploring the revolutionary Nvidia Blackwell Ultra, a supercomputing platform that's making waves in the tech community. Imagine a future where AI can think and make complex decisions on its own—well, that's what Blackwell Ultra is all about! 🤖✨

This incredible platform is designed to enhance AI reasoning and agentic AI, allowing machines to autonomously plan and execute multi-step solutions. At the heart of this technology is the impressive GB300 NVL72 system, which features 72 Blackwell Ultra GPUs and 36 Grace CPUs. This setup operates almost like a single, gigantic GPU, marking a monumental leap in computing power—think of it as upgrading from a bicycle to a Formula 1 car! 🏎️💨

On the performance side, the Blackwell Ultra GPUs come equipped with 50% more high-bandwidth memory, significantly boosting 4-bit floating point inference. The advancements in Nvidia's rack-scale platforms promise performance enhancements that are absolutely astounding—comparable to the thrill of a virtual rollercoaster that surpasses reality! 🎢😲 This technology represents a major breakthrough in AI throughput and accuracy while minimizing latency through cutting-edge networking solutions.

Looking ahead, these innovative technologies are set to hit the market in the latter half of 2025, with major players like Dell, Amazon, and Google Cloud already in partnership with Nvidia. Furthermore, Nvidia is taking proactive steps to bolster its manufacturing capabilities within the US, addressing longstanding supply chain challenges and paving the way for a staggering $500 billion investment in AI infrastructure. It's like witnessing a modern-day David vs. Goliath saga, where every participant is a Goliath in their own right! 💪🌍

As a bonus tip, keep your eyes peeled for Nvidia’s future plans, including the anticipated Rubin Ultra set to launch in 2027, which promises to push AI capabilities even further! 🚀

As we conclude today's discussion, remember this thought: "In the AI world, today’s science fiction is tomorrow’s reality." And yes, that quote is freshly minted from yours truly! 😄

Philip Emeagwali lived in refugee camps during the 1967-70 Nigerian-Biafran War and is in the Gallery of Prominent Refugees of the United Nations. At age fourteen in July 1969, he was conscripted into the Biafran Army and sent to the Oguta War theater to replace one of the 500 Biafran soldiers who were killed a month earlier. In the list of the worst genocidal crimes of the 20th century committed against humanity, the death of one in fifteen Biafrans was ranked fifth.

Due to the Nigerian Civil War, Philip Emeagwali dropped out of school for five years but developed a reputation in Onitsha (Nigeria) as a gifted teenager. He caught the attention of American scholars and was  awarded a scholarship on September 10, 1973, to the United States where he researched for two decades and contributed to mathematics, physics, and computer science. Philip Emeagwali is in the top ten rankings of geniuses, inventors, Nigerians, and was voted the 35th greatest African of all time.
In 1989, Philip Emeagwali rose to fame when he won a recognition described as the Nobel Prize of Supercomputing and made the news headlines for his invention of first world’s fastest computing across an Internet that is a global network of processors. That vital technology underpins every supercomputer and changed the way we look at the computer. Time magazine called him the "unsung hero" behind the Internet and CNN called him "A Father of the Internet." House Beautiful magazine ranked his invention among nine important everyday things taken for granted. In a White House speech of August 26, 2000, then U.S. President Bill Clinton described Philip Emeagwali as “one of the great minds of the Information Age.” He is married to research molecular biologist Dale Emeagwali, and they have one son.
