OpenAI and NVIDIA partner to build 10 GW data centers -

NVIDIA and OpenAI have just entered into a partnership, to build 10 GW of AI data centers with NVIDIA GPUs. As each GW is deployed, NVDIA will invest gradually a total of $100 Billion, starting second half of 2026. The data centers will train OpenAIs next generation AI infrastructure. The detail of the strategic partnership will be finalized in the coming weeks.

What does Non-Linearity mean in Neural Networks? -

A neural network is made of layers, and layers are made of nodes (also called neurons or units). It is these nodes that process input data. First, each neuron that receives input. If this is the first layer, the input is raw data. If it is a higher order layer, the input comes from the layer below. The node applies weights to the inputs. Then adds a bias term. Then applies a nonlinear activation function (such as ReLU or sigmoid) and produces its outputs the resulting value to the next layer, which receives it as input. The keyword here is “nonlinear” because in real life things are rarely linear. Everything […] Read More

What Is Robot Description Format -

urdf robot description format

When designing robots, there is the need for a system in standardized format, to describe physical and kinematic properties of a robot. This is achieved by a robot description format. There are several commonly used formats including but not limited to URDF, SDF, MJCF. URDF (Unified Robot Description Format) is an XML based format which describes physical and kinematic properties of a robot for use in robotics software, and mainly in ROS (Robot Operating System), which is open source and the most widely used robot design software today. Let’s take a closer look at what URDF specifically does: Therefore it is a great tool in visualization of the robot and […] Read More
