China’s LineShine Tops Supercomputing Race | Science News
China’s LineShine has officially dethroned the U.S.’s El Capitan as the world’s fastest supercomputer, clocking nearly two quintillion calculations per second in the latest TOP500 rankings. Built with over 13 million cores, LineShine outperformed its predecessor in real-world benchmarks, while the top five still includes several U.S. machines and one from Germany. But the future may belong to quantum computing—capable of exponential speedups that could render exaflops obsolete. The race for computational supremacy is far from over, and innovation shows no signs of slowing. Listen in…
