Dlaczego Wielka Brytania wznawia budowę elektrowni jądrowych
Warszawa - 02 sierpnia 2016 - Podjęta przez zarząd EDF 28 lipca 2016 decyzja o rozpoczęciu budowy elektrowni jądrowej Hinkley Point C z reaktorami EPR oznacza punkt zwrotny w rozwoju brytyjskiej energetyki. Wielka Brytania zbudowała w XIX wieku swą potęgę przemysłową w oparciu o spalanie węgla, ale wzrost kosztów wydobycia i dążenie do redukcji zanieczyszczeń powietrza emitowanych przy spalaniu węgla doprowadziły do masowego zamykania kopalni i spadku wydobycia. Kolejne rządy Wielkiej Brytanii zamykały kopalnie węgla, chociaż jego zasoby były nadal duże. Energetyka miała opierać się na elektrowniach wiatrowych na lądzie i na morzu. W grudniu 2015 roku zamknięto ostatnią głęboką kopalnię węgla kamiennego. Tymczasem jednak okazało się, że elektrownie wiatrowe nie spełniają pokładanych w nich nadziei.

NVIDIA: What's the Difference Between Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, and Deep Learning?
Santa Clara, CA, USA - July 29, 2016 - Artificial intelligence is the future. Artificial intelligence is science fiction. Artificial intelligence is already part of our everyday lives. All those statements are true, it just depends on what flavor of AI you are referring to. For example, when Google DeepMind's AlphaGo program defeated South Korean Master Lee Se-dol in the board game Go earlier this year, the terms AI, machine learning, and deep learning were used in the media to describe how DeepMind won. And all three are part of the reason why AlphaGo trounced Lee Se-Dol. But they are not the same things.

World's Fastest Commercial Drone Powered by NVIDIA Jetson TX1
Austin, Texas, USA - July 22, 2016 - Records were made to be broken, and drones are no exception. Teal Drones unveiled its first production product, Teal, a Jetson TX1-powered drone capable of flight speeds in excess of 70 mph. That makes Teal the world's fastest production drone. Image recognition systems are growing increasingly sophisticated - but they don't come close to matching the efficiency of the ones we carry around with us inside our skulls. As part of an effort to close that gap, our Jetson TX1 embedded computing module swept both tracks of the recent Low Power Image Recognition Challenge, held in Austin, Texas, at the IEEE Rebooting Computing event.

Stanford University, USA - July 21, 2016 - Everyone has heroes. Baidu Chief Scientist Andrew Ng, one of the pioneers of deep learning, is one of ours. So NVIDIA CEO Jen-Hsun Huang chose to light up a meetup of deep learning experts on a glorious mid-summer evening at Stanford University to unveil NVIDIA TITAN X, our latest top-end GPU, by presenting it to Ng. The audience of more than 500 academics, researchers, and students - gathered in an open, airy hall at Stanford's faculty club - quickly dropped their canapes and picked up their smartphones to snap pictures of the moment. "When I get excited, crazy stuff happens," Jen-Hsun, clad in one of his trademark leather jackets, told the audience. "We wanted to bring supercomputing power into the GeForce channel, so everyone in academia can benefit." Driven by 3,584 NVIDIA CUDA cores running at 1.5GHz, TITAN X packs 11 TFLOPs of brute force.
