Berzelius is a supercomputer, currently situated at Linköping University in Stockholm, Sweden. Funded by the Knut and Alice Wallenberg Foundation in 2021 to further research into Artificial Intelligence.
The supercomputer was launched with 60 of Nvidia’s fastest AI systems, and after the upgrade is complete will have 32 extra systems.
The latest upgrade is planned to help in understanding various diseases such as cancer and will make it among the world’s fastest AI supercomputers.
