You know, when I think of supercomputer applications, I think of deeply analytical problems based on solid math and well understood algorithms that can be highly parallelised to take the maximum theoretical advantage of the hardware at hand.
You know, the opposite of what the “AI” crowd is doing. Throwing vast amounts of crunching power at a barely understood hypothetical black-box problem in hopes that it potentially yields some interesting results. Maybe.
Huh.

Why think of intelligent solutions when you can just throw more money at the problem. Surely that’s how you deal with issues.
