NVIDIA's supercomputer at Taiwan's National Center for High-Performance Computing (NCHC) is set to revolutionize AI development. With over 1,700 GPUs and H200 systems, it promises to deliver
more than eight times the AI performance of its predecessor.
The supercomputer will significantly enhance the
Taiwan AI RAP initiative, which focuses on generative AI applications tailored to local cultural and linguistic contexts. According to
Chau-Lyan Chang, director general of NCHC, "The new NCHC supercomputer will drive breakthroughs in sovereign AI, quantum computing and advanced scientific computation."
In addition to AI, the supercomputer will support quantum research, utilizing NVIDIA CUDA-Q to explore applications in machine learning, chemistry, and finance. The NCHC has already developed a
Quantum Molecular Generator that creates valid chemical molecules using quantum circuits.
This initiative aligns with efforts from various Taiwanese companies, including Compal and Quanta, to accelerate quantum computing research with NVIDIA's AI supercomputing hardware, further solidifying Taiwan's position in the global AI landscape.
