Think of computers as concerts. A single instrument can make a sound, but it takes an entire orchestra to make a symphony.
In a similar way, a single computer can make calculations, but thousands of computers, networked together, can make “mathematical music,” modeling the dynamics of the entire universe.
In this Cover Story, WGN’s Mike Lowe explores the capabilities of one of the world’s most powerful supercomputers, found in the western suburbs of Chicagoland.

Consuming megawatts of power and producing little, if anything of value. IMO.
Okay! what new discoveries are going to happen?
They show off the PS4 and 360 for GPU power, not regular GPU from pc.
I used to go out to Argon National Labs in 1964, it was the highest security I ever saw. They had a small heard of White Deer. I never saw anything like it in my life.
Need the computer to take pritz job!
Can it solve the black on black crime that's going on in Chicago
But can it run Crysis?
everytime we get a supercomputer story they just say the same stuff…does this many calculations….will solve complex scientific problems….relate computing with some kind of art/music to make the story relatable without actually telling us what problems the computer has actually solved
Lots of 🤡s commenting how this is useless……. just shows how ignorant everyone has become. I hope the people approving time for experiments using Aurora’s power are screening them for anything related to Elon….. that 🤡 will just use and abuse anything and everything he can for himself……. jus’sayin…..
I like how he's comparing these to Playstation 2's and XBOX 360's… in 2024. This guy has been building this for years, he hasn't come for air, he completely missed PS3-5 and all the Xbox's. Poor guy!
They could be mining BITCOIN.
Where will technology take us in the future?
Heavy metal server pr0n on the evening news. Kinky!
About time they bring back laptops with full size DVI and Firewire ports.
Once research for Quantum computing is complete and is paired with this, the monster will be born
That place is super cool if you go on a tour
Located just South of Darien on Cass Ave, via I-55.
Imagine using that to mine for Bitcoin!
"Can be used to model 'anything'…[like] the structure of the entire Universe"… wa wa wa wa.
I had no idea Pritzker was the size of Jabba the Hutt! More like JB the House!
Ejat processor?
whatever they do with Aurora- don't let it build cyborg robots…..
Crypto currency computer servers is what gives crypto currency its value.
Feed the YouTube algorithm with a comment. Great video. Thanks!
Very interesting tour of Argonne Laboratory.
"Technological" spiritualytics … interdimensionalism …. as in the movie Tron ? 🤕🫣🤔
What is a woman? Can that computer answer that question? Its in a blue state so probably not.
Ps2?
I love how Americans always compare sizes to physical objects just to dumb it down lol.
Each evening the second shift of Bitcoin miners get to work…
Will this super computer finally be the one that ushers in world peace? How smart do we meed to be to get along and stop war and making weapons. Lets make houses.
No computer can solve humanity’s biggest problems. Greed avarice ignorance and war.
My MacBook is faster. 😂🎉❤
