In 2025, the ALCF deployed the exascale Aurora system, bringing to users one of the world’s fastest supercomputers to accelerate science with leading-edge AI capabilities.
ALCF is pioneering a service-oriented approach that integrates computing, AI inference, data analysis, and workflow tools to streamline discovery science at data-intensive research facilities. This work is supporting the goals of DOE's Genesis Mission and helping enable its American Science Cloud platform.
Secure, scalable inference on ALCF systems gives researchers direct access to large language models and foundation models for reproducible, high-throughput scientific workflows.
The ALCF expanded its array of computing systems to strengthen and improve the resources its users can employ to accelerate science.
After a year in production, Aurora is helping researchers tackle complex problems with unprecedented speed and scale, demonstrating its versatility as a platform that combines exascale computing and AI to accelerate discovery across a broad range of domains.
In 2025, researchers from around the globe leveraged ALCF's supercomputing and AI resources to drive breakthroughs across a diverse array of scientific fields, ranging from AI-driven protein design to hypersonic aircraft research to fusion energy science.
