From Megawatts to Tokens: How NVIDIA Maximizes AI Factory Production

NVIDIA detailed DSX power-management results: Lambda gained 24% token throughput at fixed power, and an AI factory auto-shed 1MW via Emerald AI's grid program.

NVIDIA says Lambda's first validation of DSX MaxLPS on HGX B200 servers ran 19 nodes within a 16-node power budget, lifting cluster token throughput 24% (roughly 4M to 5M tokens/second) and improving performance per watt by 23%. NVIDIA projects DSX MaxLPS can enable up to 40% more GPU capacity for Vera Rubin NVL72 factories within the same megawatt budget. Emerald AI's Conductor platform, running at NVIDIA's Eos factory with Silicon Valley Power, responded to over 200 utility demand signals, automatically dropping power from 4MW to 3MW without interrupting priority workloads. The first dedicated DSX Flex commercial deployment is planned at a 96-megawatt Manassas, Virginia facility.

d-Matrix Adopts NVIDIA NVLink Fusion for Rack-Scale XPU Deployment

d-Matrix will integrate its Raptor inference XPUs with NVIDIA NVLink Fusion, MGX racks and Spectrum-X networking for rack-scale AI factory deployment.

Inference chipmaker d-Matrix announced adoption of NVIDIA NVLink Fusion to connect its next-generation Raptor XPUs to NVIDIA's scale-up and scale-out networking, MGX rack architecture, and broader AI factory platform. NVIDIA claims 3x lower XPU-to-XPU latency than off-the-shelf Ethernet and 3 TB/s per-XPU all-to-all bandwidth via sixth-generation NVLink. d-Matrix plans to integrate Vera CPUs, ConnectX-9 SuperNICs, BlueField-4 DPUs and Spectrum-X Ethernet, with racks able to work alongside Vera Rubin NVL72 GPU systems. Other NVLink Fusion partners include AWS, Arm, Intel, Fujitsu, Marvell, MediaTek, Samsung and Cadence.

Thelio Mira AI Linux Workstation: 192 GB GPU Memory

System76 launches the Thelio Mira AI Linux workstation from $3,299 with dual NVIDIA RTX Pro 6000 GPUs and 192 GB GPU memory for local AI workloads.

System76's Thelio Mira AI is a locally built (Denver, Colorado) Linux workstation for AI training, fine-tuning, and inference, starting at $3,299. Configurations go up to a 16-core AMD Ryzen 9000 CPU, 192 GB DDR5 RAM, and dual NVIDIA RTX Pro 6000 Blackwell GPUs delivering 192 GB of (ECC) GPU memory with liquid cooling, dual PCIe 5.0 x16 slots, and up to three M.2 NVMe drives. It ships with Pop!_OS 24.04 LTS or Ubuntu and is positioned as a way to avoid recurring cloud GPU costs.

Why the current tech backlash feels different

The Verge's Decoder mailbag discusses the current tech backlash, arguing AI hype overstates verifiability outside software engineering.

Nilay Patel's Decoder mailbag episode addresses listener feedback on the widely discussed 'software brain' essay. He argues AI hype is concentrated on software because code is verifiable through compilation, while domains like drug discovery, math and science lack equivalent verifiability. The episode also touches on AI backlash, surveillance, data centers and upcoming midterm coverage.
