The government will secure a total of more than 260,000 graphics processing units (GPUs) of Nvidia, that are thought-about important infrastructure for synthetic intelligence (AI), and put 50,000 of them into the general public area.

Through mutual cooperation with Nvidia, the government will concentrate on creating its personal AI fashions, whereas the personal sector will broaden funding in future industries, together with bodily AI and manufacturing AI.

The Ministry of Science and ICT introduced on the thirty first that it will set up a steady cooperative relationship with Nvidia to secure AI infrastructure, strengthen bodily AI capabilities, and broaden cooperation between home firms and Nvidia.

First of all, out of the 260,000 GPUs that Nvidia is planning to provide to Korea, about 50,000 will be put into the general public sector. The GPU will be provided to the government’s impartial AI basis mannequin improvement challenge and the nationwide AI computing heart.

In the personal sector, which receives more than 200,000 units, Samsung, SK, Hyundai Motor, and Naver will buy and make the most of GPUs.

Earlier, Bae Kyounghun’s Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Science and ICT set a purpose of constructing 50,000 GPUs by 2028 and securing 200,000 GPUs by 2030 to secure AI infrastructure. South Korea, which has set its purpose of “AI 3 strongest,” has achieved its major purpose early with this provide plan, as inadequate GPU sources have been thought-about a weak point.

In addition to supplying GPUs, Nvidia has promised to cooperate with home firms and analysis institutes in varied fields resembling bodily AI, manufacturing, and know-how analysis.

On today, the Ministry of Science and ICT signed a three-way memorandum of understanding (MOU) with Hyundai Motor Group and Nvidia to foster the “Physical AI” trade that operates primarily based on precise {hardware} like robots.

The memorandum of understanding incorporates info on the development and operation of AI infrastructure, resembling analysis facilities to foster the home bodily AI trade, and the joint improvement of bodily AI know-how for autonomous driving and manufacturing and robotics.

Development of communication AI base stations…MOU with 3 telecommunications firms as properly

In the telecommunications sector, Nvidia and home telecommunications firms are selling cooperation for next-generation AI base stations.

Earlier within the day, an MOU was signed between Samsung Electronics, SK Telecom, KT, LG Uplus, the Electronics and Telecommunications Research Institute (ETRI), Yonsei University and Nvidia for joint analysis and demonstration of clever base station (AI-RAN) know-how. By combining AI know-how with cellular communication base stations, we will develop base station know-how that meets the unfold of AI providers.

In addition, SK Group mentioned with Nvidia methods to cooperate with the “Manufacturing AI Startup Alliance” to revitalize the home manufacturing AI ecosystem. Its essential purpose is to construct a manufacturing AI cloud utilizing Nvidia’s simulation and digital twin platform know-how and open it to home firms and establishments.

Nvidia can be planning to cooperate with home analysis institutes in areas resembling supercomputers, quantum computer systems, and primary science analysis. It plans to type an knowledgeable group (CoE) for technical analysis with home analysis institutes, together with the Korea Institute of Science and Technology Information (KISTI), to advertise joint analysis.

It additionally mentioned methods to broaden the dimensions of help for “N-UP,” an abroad enlargement program carried out by the Ministry of SMEs and Startups in collaboration with Nvidia to revitalize home AI startups.

Deputy Prime Minister Bae emphasised, “Expanding AI infrastructure and developing technology with Nvidia is an investment that can further strengthen Korea’s strengths such as manufacturing capabilities.”
