  2. THE AI REVOLUTION SWEEPING THE GLOBE JUST GOT FASTER.

  3. GTC, THE LARGEST AND MOST IMPORTANT EVENT OF THE YEAR FOR GPU DEVELOPERS, SHOWCASES VITAL WORK AND OFFERS TRAINING IN AI AND DEEP LEARNING.

  4. THE TOP HIGHLIGHTS OF GTC 2017 1. NVIDIA VOLTA – The New GPU Architecture 2. DGX Systems – The World’s First Purpose-Built AI Supercomputers 3. NVIDIA GPU Cloud For Deep Learning Everywhere 4. Metropolis For Smart Cities 5. Isaac Ushering In A New Era of Robotics 6. Toyota Partnership for Self-Driving Cars

  5. NVIDIA VOLTA Is The New GPU Architecture “NVIDIA Volta™ is the new driving force behind artificial intelligence. Volta will fuel breakthroughs in every industry. Humanity’s moonshots like eradicating cancer, intelligent customer experiences, and self-driving vehicles are within reach of this next era of AI.” “All the evidence I've seen is that people want infinite amounts of deep learning computing.” -Jonah Alben, SVP of Engineering, NVIDIA (Forbes) READ MORE For more information on VOLTA …

  6. ECOSYSTEM SUPPORT FOR VOLTA “… AWS is home to some of today's most innovative and creative AI applications, and we look forward to helping customers continue to build incredible new applications with the next generation of our general- purpose GPU instance family when Volta becomes available later in the year." "NVIDIA and Facebook have been great partners and we are excited about the contributions NVIDIA has made to Facebook's Caffe2 and PyTorch. We look forward to the AI advances NVIDIA's new high-performing Volta graphics architecture will enable.“ - Mike Schroepfer, chief technology officer, Facebook - Matt Garman, vice president of Compute Services, Amazon Web Services “NVIDIA's GPUs deliver significant performance boosts for Google Cloud Platform customers. GPUs are an important part of our infrastructure, offering Google and our enterprise customers extra computational power for machine learning or high performance computing and data analysis. Volta's performance improvements will make GPUs even more powerful and we plan to offer Volta GPUs on GCP." - Brad Calder, vice president of Engineering for Google Cloud Platform, Google

  7. ECOSYSTEM SUPPORT FOR VOLTA "A large variety of our products, including voice technology in wechat, photo/video technology in QQ and Qzone, and the deep learning platform based on Tencent Cloud, already rely on AI. We believe Volta will provide unprecedented computing power for our AI developers, and we're excited to open up those capabilities soon from Tencent Cloud to more clients." "Microsoft and NVIDIA have partnered for years on AI technologies, including Microsoft Azure N-series, Project Olympus and Cognitive Toolkit. The new Volta architecture will unlock extraordinary new capabilities for Microsoft customers." -Harry Shum, executive vice president of Microsoft AI and Research Group, Microsoft -Dowson Tong, senior executive vice president, Tencent "Oak Ridge National Laboratory will begin assembling our next-generation leadership computing system, Summit, this summer. Summit is powered by Volta GPUs and will be the top supercomputer in the U.S. for scientific discovery when completed in 2018. It will keep the U.S. at the forefront of scientific research and help the Department of Energy address complex challenges with computational science and AI-assisted discovery." -Jeff Nichols, associate laboratory director of the Computing and Computational Sciences Directorate, Oak Ridge National Laboratory

  8. DGX Systems For Faster AI Innovation And Insight “Inspired by the demands of deep learning and analytics, NVIDIA DGX™ Systems are built on the new, revolutionary NVIDIA Volta™ GPU platform. NVIDIA DGX Systems are designed to give data scientists the most powerful tools for AI exploration— tools that go from your desk to the data center to the cloud.” “It comes out of the box, plug it in and go to work.” -Jensen Huang, CEO, NVIDIA (GTC 2017 Keynote) READ MORE For more information on DGX Systems …

  9. NVIDIA GPU Cloud For Deep Learning Everywhere “NVIDIA GPU Cloud (NGC) is a GPU- accelerated platform that runs everywhere. Data scientists and researchers can now rapidly build, train, and deploy neural network models to address some of the most complicated AI challenges.” “We’re designing a cloud platform that will unleash AI developers, so they can build a smarter world.” - Jim McHugh, VP and GM, NVIDIA (CBROnline) For more information on NGC … READ MORE
