Artificial intelligence is driving a major sea change in the high-performance computing world.At the Supercomputing 2023 event last week, experts from throughout the HPC ecosystem gathered in Denver, Colorado, to assess the state of their industry. What they found was a technology on the brink of a transformative era, one that will be driven by the integration of AI in traditional computing, combined with advancements in semiconductor and cloud architectures

When high-performance computing industry experts gathered at SC22 last year, they were greeted with the introduction of the PowerEdge XE9680, the high-end AI training platform on display from Dell Technologies Inc.One year later, Dell and its partner Broadcom Inc. are working on the next chapter for AI servers, which will address the performance of generative AI fabrics, modern architecture that automates data integration across platforms in real time. This involves being able to provide cluster-building solutions for inferencing that can overcome the connectivity bottleneck
