“IBM is merging Google’s artificial intelligence tools
with its own cognitive computing technologies,
allowing deep-learning systems to more accurately
find answers to complex questions or recognize images
or voices. Google’s open-source TensorFlow machine-
learning tools are being packed into IBM’s PowerAI,
which features NVIDIA NVLink interconnect to connect
to GPUs, where most of the computer learning takes
place”

Healthcare Industry
It’s scary enough making a doctor’s appointment to
see if a strange mole could be cancerous. Imagine,
then, that you were in that situation while also living
far away from the nearest doctor, unable to take time
off work and unsure you had the money to cover the
cost of the visit. In a scenario like this, an option to
receive a diagnosis through your smartphone could
be lifesaving.”

“Using NVIDIA GPUs on the Amazon cloud to
train their deep learning models and a Jetson
TX1 onboard the UAV, Iris’ technology analyzes
and draws insights from videos captured by the
drone’s cameras in real-time. Its system has a
detection range of over 500 meters, significantly
farther than what others can currently do.”
