Facebook Donating 25 State Of The Art GPU Servers To AI Research In Europe

The initiative, which is currently inviting suitable applicants from the EU, comes through the Facebook AI Research (FAIR) program, and the GPU donations will come with technical support and on-site collaboration. Though no specifications on the machines involved have been revealed, it seems likely that they will be some variant on Big Sur.
