The $53 trillion manufacturing economy in the US is undergoing a major automation paradigm shift due to Artificial Intelligence (AI). Thanks to new practical frameworks, automation projects that were once impossible or inefficient to implement are now being fast-tracked, and robotics automation is becoming increasingly relevant to a growing number of users and scenarios.
Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) applications consume significant power and generate considerable heat in data centers. High-performance AI accelerators such as graphics processing units (GPUs), tensor processing units (TPUs), and application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs) increasingly require more efficient cooling methods to maintain safe and optimal thermal operating levels.
