Meta Introduces AI Supercomputer, Calls It World's Fastest

The social media conglomerate, Meta has announced that its AI Research SuperCluster, or RSC, is already among the fastest machines of its type and when complete in mid-2022, will be the world's fastest.

Meta CEO, Mark Zuckerberg said in a statement that the innovation is the world's fastest AI supercomputer and it is called RSC for AI Research SuperCluster and it will be complete later this year.

“Meta has developed what we believe is the world’s fastest AI supercomputer,” “

"We’re calling it RSC for AI Research SuperCluster and it’ll be complete later this year.”

RSC will be used to train a range of systems across Meta’s businesses: from content moderation algorithms used to detect hate speech on Facebook and Instagram to augmented reality features that will one day be available in the company’s future AR hardware.

Meta also said that RSC will be used to design experiences for the metaverse — the company’s insistent branding for an interconnected series of virtual spaces, from offices to online arenas.

Meta engineers Kevin Lee and Shubho Sengupta in a blog post outlining the news said that RSC will help Meta's AI research build new and better AI models that can learn from trillions of examples 

“RSC will help Meta’s AI researchers build new and better AI models that can learn from trillions of examples; work across hundreds of different languages; seamlessly analyze text, images, and video together; develop new augmented reality tools; and much more,”

“We hope RSC will help us build entirely new AI systems that can, for example, power real-time voice translations to large groups of people, each speaking a different language, so they can seamlessly collaborate on a research project or play an AR game together.”
