NVIDIA kicked off SC24 in Atlanta with a wave of AI and supercomputing tools set to revolutionize industries like biopharma and climate science.
The announcements, delivered by NVIDIA founder and CEO Jensen Huang and Vice President of Accelerated Computing Ian Buck, are rooted in the company's deep history in transforming computing.
Supercomputers are among humanity's most vital instruments, driving scientific breakthroughs and expanding the frontiers of knowledge, Huang said. Twenty-five years after creating the first GPU, we have reinvented computing and sparked a new industrial revolution.
NVIDIA's journey in accelerated computing began with CUDA in 2006 and the first GPU for scientific computing, Huang said.
Milestones like Tokyo Tech's Tsubame supercomputer in 2008, the Oak Ridge National Laboratory's Titan supercomputer in 2012 and the AI-focused NVIDIA DGX-1 delivered to OpenAI in 2016 highlight NVIDIA's transformative role in the field.
Since CUDA's inception, we've driven down the cost of computing by a millionfold, Huang said. For some, NVIDIA is a computational microscope, allowing them to see the impossibly small. For others, it's a telescope exploring the unimaginably distant. And for many, it's a time machine, letting them do their life's work within their lifetime.
At SC24, NVIDIA's announcements spanned tools for next-generation drug discovery, real-time climate forecasting and quantum simulations.
Central to the company's advancements are CUDA-X libraries, described by Huang as the engines of accelerated computing, which power everything from AI-driven healthcare breakthroughs to quantum circuit simulations.
Huang and Buck highlighted examples of real-world impact, including Nobel Prize-winning breakthroughs in neural networks and protein prediction, powered by NVIDIA technology.
AI will accelerate scientific discovery, transforming industries and revolutionizing every one of the world's $100 trillion markets, Huang said.
CUDA-X Libraries Power New Frontiers
At SC24, NVIDIA announced the new cuPyNumeric library, a GPU-accelerated implementation of NumPy, designed to supercharge applications in data science, machine learning and numerical computing.
With over 400 CUDA-X libraries, including cuDNN for deep learning and cuQuantum for quantum circuit simulations, NVIDIA continues to lead in enhancing computing capabilities across various industries.
Real-Time Digital Twins With Omniverse Blueprint
NVIDIA unveiled the NVIDIA Omniverse Blueprint for real-time computer-aided engineering digital twins, a reference workflow designed to help developers create interactive digital twins for industries like aerospace, automotive, energy and manufacturing.
Built on NVIDIA acceleration libraries, physics-AI frameworks and interactive, physically based rendering, the blueprint accelerates simulations by up to 1,200x, setting a new standard for real-time interactivity.
Early adopters, including Siemens, Altair, Ansys and Cadence, are already using the blueprint to optimize workflows, cut costs and bring products to market faster.
Quantum Leap With CUDA-Q
NVIDIA's focus on real-time, interactive technologies extends across fields, from engineering to quantum simulations.
In partnership with Google, NVIDIA's CUDA-Q now powers detailed dynamical simulations of quantum processors, reducing weeks-long calculations to minutes.
Buck explained that with CUDA-Q, developers of all quantum processors can perform larger simulations and explore more scalable qubit designs.
AI Breakthroughs in Drug Discovery and Chemistry
With the open-source release of BioNeMo Framework, NVIDIA is advancing AI-driven drug discovery as researchers gain powerful tools tailored specifically for pharmaceutical applications.
BioNeMo accelerates training by 2x compared to other AI software, enabling faster development of lifesaving therapies.
NVIDIA also unveiled DiffDock 2.0, a breakthrough tool for predicting how drugs bind to target proteins - critical for drug discovery.
Powered by the new cuEquivariance library, DiffDock 2.0 is 6x faster than before, enabling researchers to screen millions of molecules with unprecedented speed and accuracy.
And the NVIDIA ALCHEMI NIM microservice, NVIDIA introduces generative AI to chemistry, allowing researchers to design and evaluate novel materials with incredible speed.
Scientists start by defining the properties they want - like strength, conductivity, low toxicity or even color, Buck explained.
A generative model suggests thousands of potential candidates with the desired properties. Then the ALCHEMI NIM sorts candidate compounds for stability by solving for their lowest energy states using NVIDIA Warp.
This microservice is a game-changer for materials discovery, helping developers tackle challenges in renewable energy and beyond.
These innovations demonstrate how NVIDIA is harnessing AI to drive breakthroughs in science, transforming industries and enabling faster solutions to global challenges.
Earth-2 NIM Microservices: Redefining Climate Forecasts in Real Time
Buck also announced two new microservices - CorrDiff NIM and FourCastNet NIM - to accelerate climate change modeling and simulation results by up to 500x in the NVIDIA Earth-2 platform.
Earth-2, a digital twin for simulating and visualizing weather and climate conditions, is designed to empower weather technology companies with advanced generative AI-driven capabilities.
These tools deliver higher-resolution and more accurate predictions, enabling the forecasting of extreme weather events with unprecedented speed and energy efficiency.
With natural disasters causing $62 billion in insured losses in the first half of this year - 70% higher than the 10-year average - NVIDIA's innovations address a growing need
