In latest benchmark test of AI, it's mostly Nvidia competing against Nvidia
For lack of rich competition, some of Nvidia's most significant results in the latest MLPerf were against itself, comparing its newest GPU, H100 "Hopper," to its existing product, the A100. Although chip giant Nvidia tends to cast a long shadow over the world of artificial intelligence, its ability to simply drive competition out of the market may be increasing, if the latest benchmark test results are any indication.

Training AI to Predict Alzheimer's Disease
As many as one in five people age 65 or older experience "mild cognitive impairment" -- a condition marked by a slight decline in memory, language, or thought. Affected individuals may be prone to forgetting appointments or losing the thread of conversations. They also have a higher-than-average risk of developing the more pronounced cognitive decline of Alzheimer's disease. Yet for the majority of people, symptoms do not progress. In fact, in some instances, the symptoms can be temporary or reversible.
Artificial Intelligence Could Help Catch Alzheimer's Early
The devastating neurodegenerative condition Alzheimer's disease is incurable, but with early detection, patients can seek treatments to slow the disease's progression, before some major symptoms appear. Now, by applying artificial intelligence algorithms to MRI brain scans, researchers have developed a way to automatically distinguish between patients with Alzheimer's and two early forms of dementia that can be precursors to the memory-robbing disease. The researchers, from the VU University Medical Center in Amsterdam, suggest the approach could eventually allow automated screening and assisted diagnosis of various forms of dementia, particularly in centers that lack experienced neuroradiologists. Additionally, the results, published online July 6 in the journal Radiology, show that the new system was able to classify the form of dementia that patients were suffering from, using previously unseen scans, with up to 90 percent accuracy. "The potential is the possibility of screening with these techniques so people at risk can be intercepted before the disease becomes apparent," said Alle Meije Wink, a senior investigator in the center's radiology and nuclear medicine department. "I think very few patients at the moment will trust an outcome predicted by a machine," Wink told Live Science.
