1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 bytes is one yottabyte, the largest unit of measurement. 😮 Using #MachineLearning, a Los Alamos team set a record for memory compression on the ✨yottabyte✨ scale — a huge deal for solving hugely complex equations.👇 https://t.co/2TjrU9EiUv

Wildfires like Canada's recent outbreaks are deadly. To address this challenge, @UCSanDiego @WIFIRELab is developing BurnPro3D through @NSF’s Convergence Accelerator. The solution provides knowledge to strategize prescribed burns.

Here is Flint. Flint is a spark of #goodfire. Our summer students mentored by Melissa Floca, Rukmini Ravi, and Charles Erwin of SDSC's @WIFIRELab created Flint to teach kids about #prescibedburns. We need to learn to live with fire, and awareness is key!

🔥⚠️ Los #incendios están aumentando.

✅ El equipo de @WIFIRELab apuesta por la #IA y las quemas prescritas como #prevención
👉🏻 La idea es usar fuego de baja intensidad para limpiar el #medioambiente
