barcelona will be one of the seven factories artificial intelligence of European UnionBarcelona Supercomputing Centre-Centro Nacional de Supercomputation (BSC-CNS), which houses the supercomputer marenostrum 5One of the most powerful people in the world brussels and will receive an investment of approximately 200 million euros to develop an advanced ecosystem Aye To accelerate its adoption technology,
this tuesday European Commission has announced project approval AI Factorywhich will raise 1.5 billion euros from next year to create a European network of supercomputers that will boost Investigationdevelopment and innovation ,R&D and I) technical among 27 members of the community club, thus the situation Europe As a global benchmark in the emerging AI market.
Public transport Find out how many times you’ve traveled by public transport this year thanks to T-WrappedIn spainThis mission will be in the hands of BSC-CNS. Their proposal includes improving the capabilities of Marenostrum 5 so that it can train and develop models Generative AI Which has a positive impact on both business structures and public administration on a large scale. Both sectors will thus be able to access high-performance computing resources as well as technical training courses. Equipped with cutting-edge technology, the supercomputer based in Barcelona will serve sectors as diverse as pharmaceuticals, finance, energy and climate.
He Government central has announced This Tuesday a contribution of 62 million euros will be made to the project which will be channeled through the Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities and the Ministry of Digital Transformation and Public Services. Generalitat of Catalonia Will allocate another 14 million. Besides, AI Factory There will be international contributions: Portugal will add 15.6 million; Turkiye, 6.5 million; and Romania, one million euros.
Developing Secure Software: Free Tools and Training on OpenSSFThis ambitious European project will result in the construction of five new AI-optimized supercomputers in Finland, Germany, Italy, Luxembourg and Sweden. Only Spain and Greece, with their Daedalus supercomputers, will manage these innovation factories from pre-existing infrastructure. BSC-CNS will also have an experimental platform that will be used to develop and test cutting-edge AI applications, a function that will also be deployed at the Finnish factory.
