Abstract:
High-Performance Computing (HPC) has become a cornerstone for enabling breakthroughs in artificial intelligence (AI) by offering the computational resources necessary to process vast datasets and optimize complex algorithms. As AI models continue to grow in complexity, traditional HPC systems, reliant on central processing units (CPUs), face limitations in scalability, efficiency, and speed. Emerging technologies like quantum computing and specialized hardware such as Graphics Processing Units (GPUs), Tensor Processing Units (TPUs), and Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) are poised to address these challenges. This research paper explores various HPC techniques used to optimize and accelerate AI algorithms, focusing on quantum computing’s potential for parallelism and specialized hardware's capabilities in delivering faster computation and energy efficiency. It delves into current advancements, comparative analyses of different HPC methods, and the integration of hybrid quantum-classical approaches to further enhance AI optimization. The study also examines the challenges of implementing these technologies at scale, with an eye toward the future of AI acceleration and the role of HPC in maintaining energy efficiency while meeting computational demands. Through this investigation, we aim to provide a comprehensive overview of how quantum computing and specialized hardware are reshaping the landscape of AI, paving the way for more advanced, efficient, and sustainable AI solutions.
