The week of Sept 21: Pangram Saved 3 Engineer-Years Building AI Detectors
This week we’re celebrating the important work that our friends at Pangram Labs are doing to improve AI content detection and trust. We’re proud to power their training and experimentation infrastructure as they developed their marquee model, Pangram 4. Read the full story.
Looking ahead to October, we’re heading to Berlin for NVIDIA GTC, October 20–22.
The week of Sept 14: Millions of RNA measurements, one Lightning Studio
This week, we were on the datacenter floor with our friends from NVIDIA and Dell upgrading thousands of racks of H100s to H200s. Super proud of how fast the team is moving on this one. It's the first of a wave of upgrades planned across the entire fleet!
This week, we’re proud to support the release of Chronos, by our friends at Therna Biosciences. Chronos is the data engine behind their AI RNA Biologist, RNA-Logix™ and was developed with tens of thousands of synthetic genes and mRNAs across ~50 human cell lines in a single experiment. A ready-to-use Lightning Studio is available so you can explore the Chronos data, notebooks, and models directly. Check it out here.
Our own Jon Krohn and Frank Basso sat down with Business Insider to discuss smaller, specialized models trained on your data, running on infrastructure you own, outperforming generic off-the-shelf AI. Check out the full conversation here.
A warm welcome to two big additions to the Lightning team. Betty Junod has joined as Chief Marketing Officer, and Heather Paduck has joined as Chief Financial Officer. Betty brings deep experience at the intersection of enterprise, open source, and developer platforms. Heather brings nearly three decades of finance leadership, most recently as CFO and co-founder of STACK Infrastructure. Excited for what they'll bring as we enter our next phase of growth.
The Week of Sept 7: 16x growth on the Lightning Cloud today
I’m proud to share that the Lightning cloud is growing 16× QoQ. More notably we’re seeing 240% growth from Lightning customers that have been with us since before we launched the Lightning cloud.
