High-performance computing (HPC) has long driven progress on some of the world's most complex scientific and industrial challenges. In this video, Brian Johnson, AMD's Senior Director for HPC and Supercomputing, explains how that same community is now turning to artificial intelligence (AI) to extend what HPC systems can achieve, rather than treating AI and traditional simulation as separate disciplines.
Johnson describes the shared engineering culture between AMD and Bull, and how the two companies combine their technology and people, working directly alongside customers, to take on this convergence of HPC and AI.
As a concrete example, he points to Alice Recoque, an exascale supercomputer due within two years that brings this partnership to life. Built on the BullSequana XH3500 platform and powered by AMD Instinct MI430X GPUs and next-generation Venice CPUs, Alice Recoque is designed to give exascale-level computing power to the French scientific community.
For business and technology audiences following developments in HPC and AI infrastructure, the video offers a concise view of:
Why HPC and AI are converging rather than competing for investment and attention
How AMD and Bull structure their partnership around shared culture and customer collaboration
What the Alice Recoque supercomputer will deliver, and the hardware behind it
AMD's outlook on continued collaboration with Bull beyond this project
Watch the video to hear directly from Brian Johnson on how this partnership is shaping exascale computing in France and what it signals for the wider HPC and AI landscape.
Speak to our team about how Bull's HPC and AI expertise, built with AMD technology, can help you take on the same convergence of HPC and AI shaping projects like Alice Recoque.
