Microsoft Uses AI And HPC To Analyze 32 Million New Materials


Microsoft's partnership with the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory is part of an ambitious project to compress 250 years of chemistry research into the next 25 years.

Meanwhile, Azure Quantum Elements is playing a crucial role in battery lithium-ion research by increasing HPC cluster size and using AI for better reasoning. The goal is to accelerate discovery by rapidly processing vast amounts of simulation data on many materials to more quickly identify promising candidates. Microsoft gave six of the 18 candidates to PNNL researchers, who further narrowed the group down to a single material that contained 70% less lithium than current lithium-ion batteries.
