#205 On Leveraging AI To Grapple with Humanity’s Biggest Questions with NVIDIA’S VP of Solutions Architecture and Engineering, Marc Hamilton
Summary: <p>NVIDIA is best known for its production of GPUs and APIs that enable high-performance computing, supercomputing, and power some of the most intense applications across the world. Unsurprisingly, the company is deeply involved in AI, and on this week’s podcast, the company’s VP of Solutions Architecture and Engineering, Marc Hamilton, joins us to share the company’s unique insights into the field.</p> <p>Hamilton explains how NVIDIA’s innovative AI Factory concept allows it to introduce efficiencies into the data gathering process. He uses the example of self-driving cars to just how effective the NVIDA approach is. To manually collect all the data on all the roads in the world, the researchers would need to travel 11 billion miles. However, NVIDIA can leverage simulations of roads to “teach” the AI powering these cars synthetically.</p> <p>Hamilton then describes the fascinating advancements of digital twins – a technology idea that has been around for decades but only just now supported by powerful enough technology to handle the AI and other processing requirements for it. This, Hamilton says, can be used for everything from workplace layout simulations that “test” an environment to make sure it’s safe to work in before real humans do so, through to creating a digital “twin” of the earth as a way of testing the impact of climate change “700 or 7,000” days down the track.</p> <p>“It's going to be many years before we're done, but we're already making some interesting project progress and seeing some interesting early signs of future success,” he said.</p> <p>With AI certain to be critical to how humanity grapples with the increasingly complex challenges facing it into the future, it is companies like NVIDIA that will at the forefront of our response.
