Programming Novel AI Accelerators for Scientific Computing

Join a panel of experts, including SambaNova’s own Petro Junior Milan, as they explore the landscape of AI technologies and how you can use them to scale your own AI implementations. In this tutorial, we'll cover an overview of the AI accelerators landscape along with architectural features and details of software stacks. There will be hands-on exercises to help attendees understand how to program and run models on these systems. In particular, we will show how to train Llama models on the SambaNova platform and deploy end-to-end generative AI workflows, such as retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) and function calling.

The National Artificial Intelligence Research Resource (NAIRR) Pilot User Experience BoF

The NAIRR Pilot enables U.S. researchers to access resources needed for AI projects. The Pilot is a collaboration between federal agencies and public and private partners to establish a demonstration of a future NAIRR deployment, by soliciting applications for various research and educational resources. SC24 will get to know the Pilot's offerings in four brief sessions, featuring experts who will give short remarks followed by Q&A from the audience. We will cover: (i) What is NAIRR Pilot? (ii) What AI compute resources are available? (iii) What AI model APIs and datasets are provided? And (iv) community building and support.

What our customers say

 

Oak Ridge National Laboratory

“SambaNova’s platform will enable multiple models to be run and queried in parallel for inference time scaling so that answers can be combined to make better predictions. It’s a capability suited for the kind of problems we work on across multiple domains.”

Prasanna Balaprakash,
Director of AI Programs

 

Texas Advanced Computing Center

“We operate a heterogeneous computing environment at TACC. SambaNova will be our platform for inference on scientific applications”

Dan Stanzione, Executive Director 

 

Argonne National Laboratory

“The addition of the new SambaNova system aligns with our mission to explore how novel AI accelerator platforms can benefit and advance science.”

Rick Stevens, Associate Laboratory Director

 

Argonne National Laboratory

“One of our goals with the ALCF AI Testbed is to determine how novel AI accelerators like the SN40L could be integrated with future supercomputers to enhance energy efficiency.”
