EU needs GPU. www.euneedsgpu.com Europe's dwindling competitiveness in AI. Our inconsistent regulations are stifling innovation, putting us at risk of falling behind the global AI revolution. OpenSource AI models are the key to catching up. They democratize innovation, strengthen digital sovereignty, and drive economic growth. By allowing everyone to use, modify, and build upon cutting-edge AI, we can spread opportunities across all sectors of our economy. But time is running out. Without embracing open models, Europe will lack its own AI infrastructure and miss out on the next wave of technological breakthroughs. Beyond software, the EU urgently needs to invest in robust hardware infrastructure. Powerful GPU clusters are the backbone of AI innovation, enabling the training of large-scale models and supporting a wide range of scientific and industrial applications. Without significant local computing power, particularly GPU resources, Europe cannot hope to compete in the global AI race. This isn't just about keeping pace with global competitors; it's about charting a uniquely European path in AI development. By investing in EU-based compute infrastructure, we ensure that sensitive European data remains within our jurisdiction, adhere to our stringent privacy standards, and create high-skilled jobs across the continent. It's time for a cohesive EU-wide strategy that recognizes the symbiotic relationship between local compute resources and AI development, encouraging both private and public investment in high-performance computing facilities. The future of AI in Europe is intrinsically tied to our compute capabilities. Let's act now to secure Europe's place at the forefront of the AI revolution, ensuring that our continent remains a leader in technological innovation for generations to come. Just as the OpenLetter for better policy on AI - https://euneedsai.com - signed by Daniel Ek, Yann LeCun Mark Zuckerberg Sebastian Siemiatkowski Patrick Collison Börje Ekholm, Benedict Macon-Cooney Alexandre LEBRUN Francesco Milleri Julien Launay Stefano Maria Iacus and many more, we made a statement that we are going to provide GPUs for EU companies that need them! If you are GPU poor, get in touch. Let's make EU an AI power. #EuropeAI #OpenSourceAI #ComputeInfrastructure #AIInnovation #EUneedsGPU #EUneedsAI

Are "super computers" for genAI, and specialized systems the next big thing (again) in computing? Or will Moore's law prevail and commodity hardware will catch up in 18/24 months? Data from Google's data centers (found in a lecture slide from Amin Vahdat) suggests that while transistor count is doubling, its no longer doing so in constant dollars. For computation (CPUs, specifically) this means you can't wait for efficiency gains while demands on compute are increasing by a factor of 10x, 100x. This is perhaps the most important question in computing to answer. This will reshape the industry and there will be new winners because of this. GenAI is just accelerating this change and there will be a change of guard in technology. Those much further along with chips and specialized systems might benefit from the pull of GenAI. Infrastructure will look different much like apps will look different going into the future. We went from engineered systems infrastructure to distributed cloud infrastructure, and now I think we move into specialized intelligent infrastructure that helps developers build experiences unimaginable before. #genAI #cloudcomputing #infrastructure
