Incredible achievement. So glad to be able to watch this video and learn a bit about it. Would love to watch a more detailed tour/breakdown.

Reading the numbers involved in this machine and smiling, amazing achievement.

Awesome things are happening. Ty for the video

So strange to have a DOE owned exoscale computer, and not one mention of stockpile security in the video.

Well done team, hope to see more from you, this is awesome

Very, very cool. You all should be (and hopefully are) extremely proud of your achievement. ❤

Awesome.

Can any computer simulate the collapse of the North Tower if it does not have the data on the distributions of steel and concrete down the structure? Where have engineers discussed that in two decades?

I don't know if you're hinting at some garbage conspiracy-fueled point, but experts didn't need a supercomputer to predict that the thousands of gallons of jet fuel burning inside the structures would soften the steel leading to collapse after the towers (impressively) withstood the initial collisions. Go read "NOVA | Transcripts | Why the Towers Fell" or The New Yorker's masterful "The Tower Builder." From the latter: 'Mark Loizeaux, the president of Controlled Demolition Incorporated, a Maryland-based family business that specializes in reducing tall buildings to manageable pieces of rubble. “Within a nanosecond,” he told me. “I said, ‘It’s coming down. And the second tower will fall first, because it was hit lower down.’ ”

I would like to see in a computer a simulation of the Universe and all its planets and show this Simulation to everyone who wants to see it be it on Virtual Reality or Augmented Reality or both.

It's confusing that interviewees jump between the SI prefix "exa" and the name "quintillion"; I checked Wikipedia and they both mean 10^18, or 1 followed by 18 zeros. It's easy to lose sight that "exascale" is 10 times more powerful than the wimpy supercomputer that can "only" perform 1 followed by 17 zeros of floating point operations per second, which in turn is as powerful as 100 petaflop-scale computers.

5:34 That's hilarious they were looking on ebay for parts for the world's fastest supercomputer 😂

I see footage of hardware from Cray. Are these compute elements really Graphics Processing Units (GPU)s or just vector engines with a deep pipeline?

Wikipedia is your friend (Don't forget to donate!): "Frontier uses 9,472 AMD Epyc 7453s "Trento" 64 core 2 GHz CPUs (606,208 cores) and 37,888 Radeon Instinct MI250X GPUs (8,335,360 cores)." Presumably someone will build something similar using the latest AMD CPUs and new MI300 GPUs. Google has built a supercomputer out of its TPUv5 tensor processing units, I don't know where it scores.

Might be, but he made the alternator, and big contribution to AC/DC tech. So this is IBM mainframe with huge power requirements. On the other hand, Tesla dispersed the power requirements into consumable units. Working with Niagra Water Falls is every engineer's dream. It was about focus at that time, with Transatlantic broadcasting through air and other crazy, unimaginable stuff.

@@MsDuketown yeah and few even know what the falls true potential is truly. the water falling through the air creates more electricity than the generators being moved by the falling water. kalvins thunderstorm machine. the scale can be grossly modified and produces massive amounts of charge potential in a bifilar coil set up. nikola tesla did much more than given credit 80 chest they stole from him. this is his future no one else's. i plan on making the future as he did. but i will not fall to the same corruption as he did. any moving water also churns the Æther with it or for more common terms. moves " electrons" freely. even though no electron has ever been recorded in history. might be a reason the greatest of minds seen that as a misunderstanding to the masses. your all being controlled on so many levels.
