  <title><![CDATA[Georgia Tech Unveils New AI Makerspace in Collaboration with NVIDIA]]></title>
  <body><![CDATA[<p>Georgia Tech’s College of Engineering has established an artificial intelligence supercomputer hub dedicated exclusively to teaching students. The initiative — the AI Makerspace — is launched in collaboration with&nbsp;<a href="https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/">NVIDIA</a>. College leaders call it a digital sandbox for students to understand and use AI in the classroom</p>

<p>Initially focusing on undergraduate students, the AI Makerspace aims to democratize access to computing resources typically reserved for researchers or technology companies. Students will access the cluster online as part of their coursework, deepening their AI skills through hands-on experience. The Makerspace will also better position students after graduation as they work with AI professionals and help shape the technology’s future applications.</p>

<p>“The launch of the AI Makerspace represents another milestone in Georgia Tech’s legacy of innovation and leadership in education,” said&nbsp;<a href="https://coe.gatech.edu/about/leadership">Raheem Beyah</a>, dean&nbsp;of the College and Southern Company Chair. “Thanks to NVIDIA’s advanced technology and expertise, our students at all levels have a path to make significant contributions and lead in the rapidly evolving field of AI.”</p>

  <!--  Disquisition: it's funny how I write these TODOs and then never
         revisit them. It's as though the act of writing the thing down frees me
         from the responsibility to actually solve the problem. But what can I
         say? There are more problems than there's time to solve.  -->
