Consulting firm Deloitte today announced the launch of the Deloitte Center for AI Computing, designed to accelerate development of artificial intelligence solutions for Deloitte clients. Built on NVIDIA’s DGX A100 systems , the center “brings together the supercomputing architecture and AI expertise that clients require as they become AI-fueled organizations,” Deloitte said.
“The Deloitte Center for AI Computing is a pioneering effort that brings together Deloitte’s deep AI experience with the powerful supercomputing capabilities of Nvidia DGX A100 systems to innovate with clients and accelerate their journey from AI experimentation to becoming AI-fueled organizations,” said Jason Girzadas, managing principal, Deloitte Consulting LLP. “Our collaboration with NVIDIA can enable clients to quickly deliver on the full promise of AI solutions to transform both their businesses and the basis of professional services.”
Deloitte said the center’s Nvidia DGX POD, built from a reference architecture with several DGX A100 systems, Nvidia Mellanox networking and high-performance storage, will further develop AI solutions started in Deloitte’s AI Exploration Lab in Austin, Texas, and the AI Factory in Canada.
“AI is moving from research labs into industry, and Deloitte’s efforts will supercharge its reach,” said Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang. “Every industry will be transformed by AI. Products and services will be revolutionized by AI. Companies will become learning machines and their people will be supported by AI. Together with Deloitte’s global force of experienced specialists, we will turbocharge the realization of this vision.”
The center will collaborate with the Deloitte AI Institute , whose mission is to support the positive growth and development of AI through engaged conversations and research. It also focuses on building ecosystem relationships that help advance human-machine collaboration in the “Age of With,” a world where humans work side-by-side with machines.
