<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black;background:white">Dear CAICE:<br>
<br>
I’m soooooo excited to let you know that our AI@AU GPU Cluster has been assembled, tested, and is ready to go
</span><span style="font-family:"Apple Color Emoji";color:black;background:white">🙂</span><span style="color:black;background:white">!!!<br>
<br>
The AI@AU GPU Cluster currently consists of 16 NVIDIA A100 GPUs (2 Lambda Labs 8 GPU Hyperplanes). By mid-Semester, we will add another 8 NVIDIA H200 GPUs (by way of an additional Lambda Labs 8 GPU Hyperplane). The specs are attached.</span>
