Information
At Google Cloud, we view AI not as a competing workload, but as a powerful catalyst to supercharge the entire High-Performance Computing (HPC) ecosystem. The future of scientific research lies in this deep convergence.
Join this session to explore how organizations can leverage AI to enhance productivity, accelerate workflows, and unlock the massive compute power of modern accelerators. We will dive into the three core pillars driving the next era of HPC:
Supercharging Workflows with Agentic AI: Discover how AI acts as an active collaborator across the research lifecycle—from frictionless literature reviews and hypothesis generation to accelerated coding and automated multi-step data analysis.
Augmenting Simulations with AI-Driven Surrogates: Learn how blending traditional physics-based HPC with AI surrogate models achieves faster time-to-solution, enables smarter parameter sweeps, and unlocks previously intractable problems like complex weather forecasting and biomolecular prediction.
Embracing AI Accelerators through Mixed Precision: As the AI boom drives hardware innovation, find out how the HPC community can adapt mathematical approaches. We will discuss rethinking precision requirements and leveraging mixed-precision algorithms to balance scientific accuracy with breakthrough performance on AI-native hardware.
Key Takeaway: To advance HPC, we must lean into the AI revolution. Attend this session to learn how augmenting workflows, blending physics with machine learning, and optimizing algorithms will help you unlock the next era of breakthrough scientific discovery.
