AMD’s new Epyc server CPUs should be the right choice for data centers and technical applications, thanks to a record-breaking amount of cache or up to 128 cores. The new, upgraded processors are attracting some interest from large cloud operators. AMD has also revealed more details about the Instinct MI300. There is the accelerator combination called A-CPU as MI300A and the CPU-less version MI300X. These should be able to handle AI workloads better and compete with AI accelerator cards such as those from Nvidia. Meanwhile, the consequences of a ransomware attack in 2021 on a US clinic are now becoming apparent. After the massive cyber attack, the hospital was unable to apply for funds from insurance companies and authorities for months. For financial reasons it is now closing – the most important reports in a nutshell.
New Epyc server processors puts AMD at an in-house event in San Francisco. The Epyc 98×4 based on Zen 4c “Bergamo” have up to 128 cores including simultaneous multithreading, so provide up to 256 threads. The “Genoa-X” like the Epyc 9684X boast up to 1.125 GB L3 cache. The Epyc processors Bergamo and Genoa-X fit in same systems as Genoa and can be run after a BIOS update. This allows customers to easily mix and match their rack servers when running different workloads. Become the first buyer Amazon, Oracle and Microsoft called: AMD’s new Epyc CPUs with 1.1 GB cache or up to 128 cores for servers.
Explained at the same event AMDmost AI workloads would today of CPUs lifted, and thus shares Intel’s view. AI is the next step in the Data center revolution and “Megatrend #1,” said AMD CEO Lisa Su. For data centers alone, AMD expects a $150 billion market in 2027. The associated tasks such as AI training would have to be essential faster and at the same time more efficient take place. AMD relies on the MI300 for this Combination of CPU and accelerator cores in a multi-chip module for the SP5 version: AMD MI300 is an A CPU with Zen 4 cores, CDNA3 accelerator and more.
A hospital in the US state of Illinois will close on Friday this week and will give a ransomware attack as one of the reasons. As a result of the attack, the Hospital computer systems disabled in 2021so for months no financial claims to insurance companies and government agencies could be asked what to financial difficulties led. According to experts, it is the first hospitalthe shut down due to a cyber attack. The Covid 19 pandemic and staff shortages are other reasons given for the closure: US hospital is closing for the first time due to a ransomware attack.
of Germany healthcare system will become even more dependent on computer systems in the future, because e-prescriptions should find out from July 1st about the electronic health card (eGK) can be redeemed by those with statutory health insurance. Gematik, which is responsible for digitization, used this method of redemption already announced in 2022. Federal Minister of Health Karl Lauterbach reaps sharp criticism for the statement that “probably 80 percent of the pharmacies in Germany will already be connected to the system” and that’s it suitable for everyday use may be. But that’s not entirely true, according to various players in the healthcare sector: According to doctors, Lauterbach’s announcements about the e-prescription were a “night and fog action”.

Almost all Software programmers large US companies are already using Artificial intelligence (AI) on. That comes from one Survey by the GitHub code management platform out. 92 percent of the US programmers surveyed said they already did AI tools in everyday life to use. According to Github, 70 percent responded that their productivity in programming had increased significantly thanks to AI support and enabled them to improve the quality of their codeto process specifications faster and to react better to problems: According to the GitHub study, AI is established in software development.
To the Development of AI there is one recently new podcast from heise onlinebecause in the last few weeks and months the news has been pouring in artificial intelligence. Every day there are new areas of application, warning calls or cheering messages. In which new podcast “KI Update” is Isabel Grünewald together with colleagues from heise online and the magazines Order in the confusion of current developments in the field of AI bring. Plus there is every working day from 3 p.m a News Summary and one every Friday Deep Divein which individual aspects of the AI revolution are highlighted: KI Update as a new podcast from heise online.
