How HPC and AI Can Help You Thrive

A conversation with Dr. Nash Palaniswamy, General Manager for AI, HPC and Datacenter Accelerators Solutions Intel Corporation

A conversation with Dr. Nash Palaniswamy, to get his perspective on the importance of High Performance Computing (HPC) and AI, for both business and society today - and the role these technologies will play for future generations.

High Performance Computing (HPC) infrastructure. It’s a term that we all know. But one that’s not always well understood.
 
What about AI? Is that different to HPC?
 
According to Nash, artificial intelligence comes in different forms: from the common applications we use today, like machine learning and Natural Language Processing, to more advanced and complex concepts like deep learning and neural networks.

HPC has the capacity, power and speed to run any of those AI applications at scale.  So as IT leaders start preparing their infrastructures for the future – when we’ll see compelling use cases emerge for those high-end  AI applications – they need to be thinking about HPC as the foundation for that journey.
