Dr. Dan Stanzione: Building Supercomputers, Artificial Intelligence, LLMs & Politics of Research
Description
In this episode, I had the absolute honor of speaking with Dr. Dan Stanzione. Dr. Stanzione is the director of the Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC) and the Vice President for Research at the University of Texas at Austin.
Dr. Stanzione has served as the Primary Investigator (PI) for the development of countless multimillion-dollar supercomputer facilities/systems, such as Frontera, Lonestar 6, and most recently, Horizon & the LCCF. Dr. Stanzione and the supercomputer he helps build directly influence research across not only the University of Texas, but the whole of Academia.
This podcast has no affiliation with the University of Texas or the University of Texas Institute for Geophysics. However, it is part of my goal to make quality educational content with real experts accessible to the public for no charge whatsoever.
