Nvidia announces personal AI supercomputer called Digits: What it does and other details

Project Digits

Have you ever dreamed of owning an AI supercomputer? Well, NVIDIA has now answered your prayers. The chipmaker has launched Project Digits, which is a personal AI supercomputer. It is compact and brings supercomputing powers to your desk. In simple terms, the Digits, allows you to work on AI models without requiring a huge setup or a fancy lab.

As mentioned above, Project Digits is an AI supercomputer. It is powered by a chip called the GB10 Grace Blackwell Superchip. The chip is capable of running complex AI programs. Now the most notable factor here is that it comes in a really compact size. It is so small that it can easily sit on a desk and run using the regular power outlet. Notably, to do the kind of tasks that this AI supercomputer is capable of, it required big, expensive systems that sucked up a lot of energy. The design of the device is pretty similar to Apple’s Mac Mini.

So it does not matter if you are a student, researcher or a developer, you can experiment with any AI models on your desktop and then can easily scale it up by connecting to bigger cloud systems when it is ready. The device is extremely powerful, which means it can easily run models that run tons of data, process huge language models.

-- The supercomputer uses the GB 10 chip which combines super-smart processor and graphics engine to deliver extremely fast performance

--It has huge storage space to handle heavy AI tasks easily.

-- It will also allow users to link two units together for bigger projects or use it with cloud services.

-- The Project Digits comes loaded with software which makes AI development easier. It comes with special tools for coding, testing, and managing data.

The Project Digits comes at a starting price of $3,000. It will be available in May 2025.
