Leveraging GPU Cloud Servers for Improved AI Model Training
GPU cloud servers are high-performance computing resources designed to accelerate tasks that require substantial computational power, such as AI model training.
Unlike traditional CPU-based servers, GPU cloud servers utilize Graphics Processing Units, known for their capacity to perform parallel computations efficiently. This capability makes them ideal for AI model training, where large datasets and complex neural networks are common.
B2B businesses are increasingly turning to GPU cloud servers to enhance the speed and efficiency of AI model training. [Read more…] about Leveraging GPU Cloud Servers for Improved AI Model Training
Stäubli launches new software to enable robot programming through PLCs
Stäubli has launched uniVAL pi, a software solution that will enable robot programming to be implemented in the future via the PLC, using Plug & Play in Siemens TIA Portal.
A PLC, or programmable logic controller, is a type of small computer or device used to control machines in factories.
Stäubli’s new software is optionally an available communication interface, with which users can program Stäubli robots without manufacturer-specific, high-level language knowledge in their familiar environment – safely, quickly and efficiently, says the company.
