Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory will receive a new supercomputer in 2026, built by Dell Technologies and powered by Nvidia AI chips. This system, named after Nobel laureate Jennifer Doudna, is expected to be over ten times faster than the lab's current most powerful system and will be a significant resource for AI model training and scientific simulations. The choice of Nvidia chips and Dell reflects a growing trend in government labs adopting commercial AI technologies.
