The Cambrian explosion of AI chips has made it hard to tell what chip is good for what. Venkat Vishwanath, Data Science Team Lead at the Argonne Leadership Computing Facility (ALCF), and a Gordon Bell finalist, joins us to discuss the ALCF AI Testbed. Currently working with systems such as Cerebras, Graphcore, SambaNova, Habana, Groq, Untether, Tenstorrent, Esperanto, and others, the Testbed evaluates accelerators from a usability and performance standpoint.   OrionX Editorial TeamThe OrionX editorial team manages the content on this website.

Dr. Joe Landman joins us to discuss how the open source OS community has found itself in the middle of the kind of Linux wars that can change the industry. The recent firestorm in the Linux world erupted when Red Hat changed the access mechanism and distribution rights of the Red Hat Enterprise Linux. We unpack what happened, who it affects, and how the landscape might change. Joe has been a business and technology leader, a hands-on engineer and architect, and a data analyst and researcher. A computational physicist by training he has was one of the early pioneers of custom and accelerated systems.  Read his blog on this and other HPC software here.   OrionX Editorial TeamThe OrionX editorial team manages the content on this website.
