The U.S. has formed a $1B partnership with Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) to construct two supercomputers that will tackle large scientific problems, Energy Secretary Chris Wright and AMD CEO Lisa Su told Reuters. The plans call for the first computer, called Lux and to be based around AMD’s MI355X artificial intelligence chips, to be constructed and come online within the next six months. The system is co-developed by AMD, Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE), Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (ORCL) and Oak Ridge National Laboratory, the report noted.
