DeepL and NVIDIA have unveiled a groundbreaking AI supercomputing cluster capable of translating the entire internet in just 18.5 days, dramatically reducing the previous timeline of 194 days. This remarkable achievement highlights Europe’s growing prominence in the global AI race and marks the first European deployment of NVIDIA’s DGX SuperPOD with DGX GB200 systems.
The high-performance AI infrastructure, situated at DeepL’s partner EcoDataCenter in Sweden, significantly boosts the platform’s generative capabilities, enabling faster, smarter, and more nuanced translations. This massive leap forward in computing power demonstrates how strategic partnerships and infrastructure investments can transform language AI at an unprecedented scale.
DeepL’s CEO and founder, Jarek Kutylowski, emphasized the strategic importance of this deployment. “We take pride in our unwavering commitment to research and development, consistently delivering solutions that outshine competitors,” he said. “Integrating these cutting-edge advancements into our technology stack is essential for our continued growth.”
Immediate improvements from this deployment will include significantly increased translation quality, faster processing times, and advanced generative features. For example, translating the entire Oxford English Dictionary will now take just two seconds—down from 39 seconds—while Marcel Proust’s lengthy classic “In Search of Lost Time” will translate in just 0.09 seconds, compared to the previous 0.95 seconds.
Charlie Boyle, Vice President of DGX systems at NVIDIA, noted that such robust deployments are crucial for Europe’s competitive edge. “Harnessing the performance and efficiency of our latest AI infrastructure allows DeepL to accelerate breakthroughs in language AI, delivering transformative experiences for users across the continent and beyond,” Boyle said.
DeepL’s long-term vision involves exploring multi-modal models and increased personalization, promising a tailored and highly interactive experience for every user. With this pioneering supercomputing deployment, DeepL solidifies its role as a leader in language AI, setting new benchmarks for what European AI infrastructure and innovation can achieve.
