The computing power alone of all these gpus would bring a revolution in simulation software. I mean 0 AI/machine-learning, just being able to simulate much more things than we can.

Most industry-specific simulation software is REALLY crap, most from the 90s and 80s and barely evolved since then. Many stuck on single core CPUs.

It could be a nice side-effect of having all this “LLM hardware” built into everything, nice little throughput focused accelerators in everybody’s computers.

I think if I were starting grad school now and wanted some easy points, I’d be looking at mixed precision numerical algorithms. Either coming up with new ones, or applying them in the sciences.
