NVIDIA Vera CPUs to accelerate agentic AI for science at Los Alamos National Laboratory

NVIDIA's Vera CPU is set to power new supercomputers at Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL), enhancing scientific discovery and agentic AI capabilities. The new systems, named Mission, Vision, and Veritas, will integrate Vera CPUs with NVIDIA Rubin GPUs and InfiniBand networking. Early tests show Vera CPUs significantly outperform previous architectures on scientific workloads like the URSA AI agent and the Branson simulation tool, promising faster research outcomes. AI

IMPACT Accelerates scientific discovery and the development of agentic AI for complex research problems.
