A £225m supercomputer is using artificial intelligence (AI) to develop new drugs and vaccines. When it is fully operational this summer, the Isambard-AI computer in Bristol will be the most powerful supercomputer in the UK.

The new artificial intelligence framework, called DIMON (Diffeomorphic Mapping Operator Learning), isn’t restricted by any single shape or scenario. Instead, it learns how solutions behave across different geometries, allowing it to quickly predict answers to problems that once demanded days of continuous number crunching.

Nvidia Digits represents a significant leap forward in AI technology. By combining powerful hardware, a comprehensive software stack and a compact, power-efficient design, Digits brings the capabilities of an AI supercomputer to the desktop.

Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, Nvidia unveiled Project Digits, a device it's calling a 'personal AI supercomputer.'

Nvidia offers a range of similar devices in the same accessibility style. In December, it announced a $249 version of its Jetson computer for AI applications, targeting hobbyists and startups, called the Jetson Orin Nano Super.

The announcement last August by the UK's then-new Labour Government that it was ending an £800 million supercomputer project at Edinburgh University was greeted by the HPC community with consternation -- particularly in Scotland.

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang also announced new AI tools for creating autonomous agents during a keynote address at CES.

The rising demand for computing power to support AI workloads has fueled rapid growth in the market for high-powered servers. It is a lucrative business for firms like Dell, Supermicro, and Hewlett Packard Enterprise, who have all seen increased demand for their high-performance server products in recent years.

But what's inside makes it pretty special. Digits is powered by Nvidia's new GB10 Grace Blackwell Superchip, which delivers up to 1 petaflop of AI performance, and Nvidia teamed up with MediaTek to make the chip more energy-efficient, meaning that running it requires the kind of power you get from a standard power outlet.

The Isambard-AI Supercomputer located at the National Composites Center in Bristol, UK, aims to be the one of the fastest 10 supercomputers in the world.
