Our November session is Scaling Training Across GPUs and Nodes with speaker Zoe Ryan. This session focuses on efficient strategies for using multiple GPUs and nodes. We will discuss how to deploy strategies of data parallelism and model parallelism to scale to multiple GPUs through PyTorch, enabling faster training times and better model performance.
Location: CoDa W401 & Zoom

Today, strategic stability is increasingly important and potentially fragile. Nuclear weapons are no longer the only technology that threatens a state with devastation. AI competition and emergent AI capabilities could challenge strategic stability in many ways, including offensive and defensive cyber operations, sensing, ballistic missile defense, and intelligence / counterintelligence operations.
This talk will provide a detailed account of how AI, nuclear deterrence, and semiconductor interdependence jointly shape strategic stability in U.S.–China competition. From there, the seminar will make the case that AI introduces both new deterrence tools and new threats to strategic stability, especially through its effects on cyber operations, intelligence, and command-and-control.
