Big news from SK Telecom! 🌟 Today, SKT announced the launch of their GPU-as-a-Service (GPUaaS), targeting enterprise and government customers in South Korea. This service comes from their AI data centre in Gasan, aiming to accelerate AI technology development. Here's what makes SKT's GPUaaS unique: - ✅ Flexibility: Businesses can select the number and duration of GPUs based on their needs. - ✅ Customisation: Options include standalone servers, firewalls, and dedicated lines. - ✅ Scalable Pricing: Determined by contract period, number of GPUs, and prepaid billing options. This launch aligns with SKT's AI infrastructure superhighway strategy, supported by Nvidia H100 Tensor Core GPUs. An upgrade to Nvidia H200 technology is expected in Q1 2025, enhancing AI development and expanding their customer base. Crucial to this offering is SKT's AI Cloud Manager. It consolidates GPU resources, maximising performance and reducing AI learning times. Kim Myong-gook, head of SK Telecom's GPUaaS business, highlighted that this move marks a significant step for SKT in the AI infrastructure realm, aiming to boost client competitiveness through enhanced AI services. This launch is timely, as interest is already high with enquiries from over 100 potential customers including large enterprises and research institutions. Competition is fierce, with many global telcos like Telekom Malaysia, Indosat Ooredoo Hutchison, and Orange Business, also offering GPUaaS solutions. #Telecom #AI #Innovation

Nvidia has recently slammed outgoing President Biden's planned AI tech sanctions. This proposed sanction targets nations like China and Russia and aims to restrict advanced chip exports to these countries. 🔍 Ned Finkle, Nvidia's VP of government affairs, expressed deep concern. He labelled the move as "misguided" and argued it would "undermine America's leadership." Finkle believes these restrictions will also harm the US economy and sabotage American's technological edge. Biden's policy is designed to keep advanced semiconductor technology away from nations deemed security risks by the US. This involves a new Export Control Framework for Artificial Intelligence Diffusion. It plans to limit powerful GPUs' export by creating a global licensing system and ranking nations on their alignment with US policies. Here's the breakdown: ✅ Countries like the UK, Japan, and Canada have unrestricted access. ❌ China, Russia, and close allies face total import restrictions. ⚖️ The rest sit in Tier 2 with conditions on computing power imports. What does this mean for us in the UK? Well, no immediate impact on our tech imports, but the broader implications on global AI innovation could be profound. Nvidia, the world's leading GPU company, has been selling its products globally as fast as they can produce them. Any export restrictions could stifle innovation and economic growth worldwide. Nvidia isn't alone in this concern. Several US tech giants fear these controls are far too strict, potentially damaging mainstream AI applications. In particular, Southeast Asian countries prioritising digital transformation could find these restrictions particularly stifling. For deeper insights and to see how this unfolds, keep an eye on the news. It's critical to understand these dynamics as they shape the future of global tech and innovation. Let's discuss: Do you think these sanctions will help or hinder global AI progress?

Exciting times in the telecoms world! SK Telecom (SKT) has just launched their new GPU-as-a-Service (GPUaaS). This move is a big boost for enterprise and government customers in South Korea. The new service lets businesses choose the number and duration of GPUs based on their AI service needs and offers flexible pricing. Starting in the second half of 2024, SKT upgraded its AI datacentre in Gasan with a cluster of Nvidia H100 Tensor Core GPUs, thanks to a partnership with Lambda. And there's more to come - Nvidia H200 Tensor Core technology is set to be deployed in early 2025, aiming to accelerate AI development for domestic companies. 📈 Crucially, SKT's AI Cloud Manager can manage numerous GPU resources as if they were a single computer, boosting performance and reducing AI development time. According to Kim Myong-gook, the head of SK Telecom's GPUaaS business, this service will position SKT as a major force in the AI infrastructure arena. Despite facing competition from other global hyperscale datacentre operators and regional telcos, SKT has big plans and already has potential customers lining up. #AI #Telecoms #Innovation
