At JUPITER’s inauguration ceremony in Jülich, attended by Germany Chancellor Friedrich Merz, the Jülich Supercomputing Centre and NVIDIA unveiled ways the supercomputer is already spurring innovation across the world.
Guess the problem is that we might have chips and tech, but not on a level ndidia can currently deliver. AND in the needed quantity and time. Not to mention the best available speed. Which, for this project, is crucial. With 42k chips, only a slight disadvantage in speed adds up massively.
But dont get me wrong. Yeah sure we SHOULD. I can just understand why we can’t. Right now. Yet celebrating it as “european” is a bit…weird.
