SoftBank is set to receive Nvidia's Blackwell chips first, aiming to use them in a powerful supercomputer that will advance Japan's capabilities in generative AI.
With the first chip of the Blackwell series, the GB200, planned to ship this year, SoftBank aims to lead a new era of accelerated computing.
The Blackwell architecture, featuring 208 billion transistors and an improved Transformer engine, promises significant advancements in model training and inference efficiency.
This ambitious supercomputer will not only enhance SoftBank's AI research but also be accessible to institutions and businesses across Japan.
