The June 2024 Top500 supercomputer list was released at ISC 2024, and there is a lot to unpack. The latest Top 500 Supercomputers list highlights significant trends in the supercomputing landscape, as NVIDIA takes 7 spots with Grace-based systems, including 3 of the top 20. Although the balance between Intel and AMD remains static, there is a shift towards co-packaged CPUs and accelerators just as Intel announces they will sunset Ponte Vecchio, their entry in this space, and skip the next generation. Interestingly, HPE was a big winner here, leading in new systems and enabling 8 of the 10 Grace and MI300A entrants. And we see Arm well-represented here, with 8 new servers on the list.

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Takeaways from the Metaculus AI Progress Tournament, published by Javier Prieto on July 27, 2023 on The Effective Altruism Forum. In 2019, Open Philanthropy commissioned a set of forecasts on AI progress from Metaculus. The forecasting questions had time horizons between 6 months and >6 years. As of June 2023, 69 of the 111 questions had been resolved unambiguously. In this post, I analyze the accuracy of these forecasts as a function of question (sub)category, crowd size, and forecasting horizon. Unless otherwise indicated, my analyses are about Metaculus' proprietary aggregate forecast ("the Metaculus prediction") evaluated at the time the question closed. Related work Feel free to skip to the next section if you're already familiar with these analyses. This analysis published 2 years ago (July 2021) looked at 64 resolved AI questions and concluded there was weak but ultimately inconclusive evidence of bias towards faster progress. A more recent analysis from March 2023 found that Metaculus had a worse Brier score on (some) AI questions than on average across all questions and presented a few behavioral correlates of accuracy within AI questions, e.g. accuracy was poorer on questions with more updates and when those updates were less informative in a certain technical sense (see post for details). Metaculus responded to the previous post with a more comprehensive analysis that included all resolved AI questions (152 in total, 64 of which were binary and 88 continuous). They show that performance is significantly better than chance for both question types and marginally better than was claimed in the previous analysis (which relied on a smaller sample of questions), though still worse than the average for all questions on the site. The analysis I present below has some overlaps with those three but it fills an important gap by studying whether there's systematic over- or under-optimism in Metaculus's AI progress predictions using data from a fairly recent tournament that had monetary incentives and thus (presumably) should've resulted in more careful forecasts. Key takeaways NB: These results haven't been thoroughly vetted by anyone else. The conclusions I draw represent my views, not Open Phil's. Progress on benchmarks was underestimated, while progress on other proxies (compute, bibliometric indicators, and, to a lesser extent, economic indicators) was overestimated. [more] This is consistent with a picture where AI progresses surprisingly rapidly on well-defined benchmarks but the attention it receives and its "real world" impact fail to keep up with performance on said benchmarks. However, I see a few problems with this picture: It's unclear to me how some of the non-benchmark proxies are relevant to AI progress, e.g. The TOP500 compute benchmark is mostly about supercomputers that (AFAICT) are mostly used to run numerical simulations, not to accelerate AI training and inference. In fact, some of the top performers don't even have GPUs. The number of new preprints in certain ML subfields over short (~6-month) time horizons may be more dependent on conference publication cycles than underlying growth. Most of these forecasts came due before or very soon after the release of ChatGPT and GPT-4 / Bing, a time that felt qualitatively different from where we are today. Metaculus narrowly beats chance and performs worse in this tournament than on average across all continuous questions on the site despite the prize money. This could indicate that these questions are inherently harder, or that they drove less or lower-quality engagement. [more] There's no strong evidence that performance was significantly worse on questions with longer horizons (

Doug is in Hamburg, Germany for the ISC23 conference where the 61st edition of the TOP500 list has just been published. 30+ years of systematic data on the highest performing computer architecture and configurations is a treasure trove and we look at the top line insights from this installment, including the GREEN500, HPCG, and the AI-inspired mixed precision benchmark HPL-MxP. This episode is sponsored by Lenovo.

Satoshi Matsuoka (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Satoshi_Matsuoka) from April 2018 has been the director of Riken Center for Computational Science (R-CCS), the Tier-1 national HPC center for Japan, developing and hosting Japan's flagship ‘Fugaku' supercomputer which has become the fastest supercomputer in the world in all four major supercomputer rankings in 2020 and 2021 (Top500, HPCG, HPL-AI, Graph500), along with multitudes of ongoing cutting edge HPC research being conducted, including investigating Post-Moore era computing, especially the future FugakuNEXT supercomputer.  He was the leader of the TSUBAME series of supercomputers that had also received many international acclaims, at the Tokyo Institute of Technology, where he still holds a professor position, to continue his research activities in HPC as well as scalable Big Data and AI.  His longtime contribution was commended with the Medal of Honor with Purple ribbon by his Majesty Emperor Naruhito of Japan in 2022. Other accolades include the Fellow positions in societies/conferences ACM, ISC, and the JSSST; the ACM Gordon Bell Prizes in 2011 & 2021; the IEEE-CS Sidney Fernbach Award in 2014 as well as the IEEE-CS Computer Society Seymour Cray Computer Engineering Award in 2022, both being the highest awards in the field of HPC, and the only individual to receive both awards; the Technical Papers Chair and the Program Chair for ACM/IEEE Supercomputing 2009 and 2013 (SC09 and SC13) respectively as well as many other conference chairs, and the ACM Gordon Bell Prize selection committee chair in 2018. In this interview, Professor Satoshi Matsuoka shared some of the highlights from his talk at SuperComputingAsia 2023 (Singapore), including the supercomputing developments in Japan, and Fugaku, the largest in Japan and one of the first 'exascale' supercomputers of the world. With applications ranging from manufacturing, disaster prevention to creating new drugs, he noted that supercomputers allow us to investigate the past, and to predict the future.  To give the audience context, Professor compares Fugaku supercomputer to everyday applications such as gaming (create “virtual worlds, but much more in a scientific way”), and smart phones (20 million times more powerful than a smartphone). In terms of power consumption, it is equivalent to running the Tokyo Disney Resort, and as such, power efficiency is critical in the overall management and operations of Fugaku – especially with carbon neutrality as a key agenda topic today. Professor Satoshi Matsuoka also touched on cybersecurity and how privacy and anonymisiation are growing areas of focus with the increasing adoption of digital twins in medical sciences. Wrapping up, he pointed out some short term goals for supercomputing in Japan to realise further synergies with the “IT” industry, and the efforts for the successor of Fugaku, FugakuNEXT, to be deployed around 2029. Recorded 28th February 2023, 12noon, SuperComputingAsia 2023, Singapore Expo.

Addison Snell, Tiffany Trader, and Oliver Peckham talk over the top stories of SC22.

Avez-vous déjà entendu parler du classement des supercalculateurs les plus puissant ? On vous l'a déjà présenté à plusieurs reprises dans ce podcast pour mettre en avant les machines les plus puissantes du monde. Mais à quoi correspond-il réellement ? Toutes les réponses à cette question, l'historique de ce classement et le décryptage des enjeux dans cet épisode.Concrètement, ce classement correspond surtout à une mesure de performance basée sur un benchmark appelé HPLinpack. Sur le site du fameux Top 500, il est précisé que ce benchmark ne saurait refléter les véritables capacités et performances des machines, mais plutôt je cite « les performances d'un système pour résoudre de nombreux équations linéaires » fin de citation. À noter que les calculs qu'ont besoin d'effectuer ces ordinateurs surpuissants sont bien différents d'un domaine à l'autre, qu'il s'agisse de simulation météo ou nucléaire, d'entraîner une IA, ou de casser des clés de sécurités par exemple.L'un des principaux critères de ce classement n'est autre que l'arrivée de nouveaux composants comme les puces ou les cartes graphiques, ce qui permet aux entreprises justement de montrer leur puissance. Comme nous vous en avions parlé il y a quelque temps dans ce podcast, AMD a récemment propulsé le premier supercalculateur exaflopique de l'Histoire tout en haut du classement. Difficile donc de savoir si le supercalculateur serait arrivé à la première place sans les nouvelles puce du constructeur. Éternel challenger d'Intel sur tous les composants électroniques, AMD vient donc marcher sur les plates-bandes, alors qu'Intel a dominé le Top500 durant des années. Impossible de passer également à côté des enjeux géopolitiques. Car ce classement met aussi en avant des entreprises, des universités et des gouvernements. Investir et communiquer sur ce sujet revient alors à mettre en avant la puissance, l'attractivité, le niveau de qualification des équipes et le niveau d'équipement de ces différentes entités et donc de montrer les muscles face à la concurrence. Si les Etats-Unis dominent historiquement ce classement, l'Europe avec Adastra (10e du classement) et Lumi (3e) tente de renverse ce rapport de force quand la Chine elle, n'est pas vraiment présente dans les première places, malgré le fait qu'elle possède le plus grand nombre de machine au Top500.Ceci dit, il est également tentant de penser que certaines puissances gouvernementales ne cherchent pas la première place et préfère rester dans l'ombre. Si le premier supercalculateur exaflopique officiel a été mis en avant récemment, on peut également se dire que la Chine et les Etats-Unis ont depuis bien longtemps dépassé cette puissance de manière officieuse, avec des budgets inimaginables, mais surtout sans le dire à personne. Ainsi, le TOP500 des supercalculateurs permet de mesurer la popularité de certaines architectures avec certains composants, les ambitions et les moyens des différents acteurs, mais ne permet pas de savoir qui dispose réellement du plus puissant ordinateur au monde, ou tout du moins de montrer uniquement ce que l'on veut bien rendre public.

Samsung Display chiude la produzione di schermi LCD, che ha prezzi in caduta libera ed è ormai una tecnologia super matura a bassa marginalità, e si concentra solo sugli Oled con la nuova tecnologia Quantum Dots. Enrico Pagliarini ne parla con Paolo Centofanti, ingegnere esperto di audio e video della redazione di Dday.it che ha da poco provato e testato gli schermi con la nuova tecnologia appena arrivati sul mercato. E' possibile geolocalizzare trasmissioni radio attraverso piccoli satelliti per ascoltare le comunicazioni di attività illecite in aree geografiche determinate. Federico Gardosi, ingegnere di Kleos, start up lussemburghese che opera nel settore spazio, spiega come funziona questa tecnologia e quali sono gli ambiti di applicazione. Parliamo anche del primo super calcolatore exascale della storia, che secondo la nuova classifica Top500.org è il sistema Frontier di HPE installato presso lo Oak Ridge National Laboratory in Tennessee (USA). Ne parliamo con Mauro Colombo, Technology & Innovation Director HPE Italia e con Paolo Cappuccio, Marketing Director & Partner Manager di Doit Systems, specializzata in soluzioni di calcolo ad alte prestazioni (HPC) anche per aziende. E come sempre le nostre Digital News, una selezione delle notizie più importanti di innovazione e tecnologia.

Addison Snell, Tiffany Trader, and Oliver Peckham cover the top stories coming out of ISC22 this week, including Frontier's exascale success and interesting new technologies topping the Green500 list.

Each year computer scientists at KAUST engage with peers at the annual SC conference, the largest supercomputing event of its kind in the world. Long-time friend to KAUST Jack Dongarra is a familiar face there. The veteran computer scientist and Top500 list producer was recently awarded the 2022 Turing Award, considered to be “the Noble Prize of Computing,” for contributions that have significantly shaped the field. Jack has also influenced HPC developments at KAUST. In this profile, recorded at SC21 in St. Louis, he talks about connections made here and throughout his career in conversation with KAUST computer scientists Hatem Ltaief and Bilel Hadri, his former postdoctoral students, and David Keyes, KAUST founding faculty member and Director of the Extreme Computing Research Center. Jack retires this summer after 32-years of service as a professor at the University of Tennessee. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

TOP500 at SC21 was highly anticipated but failed to ignite. Rumored high-end systems opted not to play while entering the conversation anyway.  However, the list is about more than the TOP10 or whether there are systems that should be there and those that should not. Looking at the whole list, we saw a few surprises.
