Cornell EMPIRE AI Weekly Forum

News

Happening every Friday from 4-4:30 PM via Zoom, the forum is for Cornell faculty and staff (e.g., research operational support staff) who are interested in the EMPIRE AI’s current status and future plans.

Earlier this spring, New York State and six academic partners, including Cornell, committed to create Empire AI*, a GPU supercluster for AI and high-performance computing academic research. An early version of Empire AI’s research computing instrument, which we call “Alpha,” is coming online by early November 2024. While the ultimate Empire AI instrument will far outstrip Alpha’s specifications, we are excited that our research communities can now start to stress test this shared resource. With Alpha, we will be able to do research we otherwise could not at our individual institutions, and we will formulate processes for operating a shared cluster.

Registration for the series is required, which will then provide the Zoom link info

Recurring weekly forums are anticipated through the fall semester. Dates include:
