OpenAI will use Reddit and a new supercomputer to teach artificial intelligence how to speak

OpenAI, Elon Musk's artificial intelligence research company, just became the proud owner of the first ever DGX-1 supercomputer. Made by NVIDIA, the rig boasts a whopping 170 teraflops of computing power, equivalent to 250 usual servers -- and OpenAI is gonna use it all to read Reddit comments. OpenAI's researchers gather around the first AI supercomputer in a box, NVIDIA DGX-1. OpenAI is a non-profit AI research company whose purpose is to "advance digital intelligence in the way that is most likely to benefit humanity as a whole, unconstrained by a need to generate financial return." And now, NVIDIA CEO CEO Jen-Hsun Huang just delivered the most powerful tool the company has ever had at its disposal, a US 2 billion supercomputer.
