New Zealand\u2019s most powerful supercomputer for artificial intelligence applications has been installed at the University of Waikato by Nvidia partner Fujitsu.<\/p>\n

The Nvidia DGX A100 is the first computer of its kind in New Zealand and the world\u2019s most advanced system for powering universal AI workloads, the University said. <\/p>\n

It can rapidly and efficiently process massive amounts of data, enabling machine learning and artificial intelligence that can solve complex problems.<\/p>\n

Machine learning uses algorithms to explore huge data sets and create models that can be trained to recognise patterns, facial expressions and spoken words – or to find anomalies such as credit card fraud.<\/p>\n

One of the first projects the computer is being used for is to train models that can learn and classify New Zealand\u2019s plants and animals, based on a publicly available database of more than one million photos.<\/p>\n
