Zettascale computing

Projection

A single system performs a thousand times more operations per second than the first exascale machines.

Frontier passed the exascale mark in 2022. Zettascale machines, likely at lower numeric precision for AI, would train and run models and simulations far beyond today's.

Why it’s plausible: AI clusters are growing faster than historical supercomputer trends; it depends on continued chip scaling, advanced packaging and gigawatt-class power supply.
