Supercomputador de IA

A expansão de 17 PFLOPS foi contratada, testada, entregue e registrada no TOP500. Contratos assinados também documentam infraestrutura de arrefecimento. O alvo original, porém, era Top 5; a evidência sustenta entrega parcial, não conclusão da promessa.

Revision · Official claim

Existing expansion framed as PBIA first stage

LNCC's delivery notice explicitly described the 17 PFLOPS update as the first stage of PBIA. This links a pre-launch contract to the plan without equating it to the full Top 5 promise.

LNCC annual report corroborates expansion contract

LNCC's formal annual report again records a US$19.4 million contract with Eviden, the November delivery and the expansion's status as PBIA's first stage.

Existing expansion framed as PBIA first stage

LNCC's delivery notice explicitly described the 17 PFLOPS update as the first stage of PBIA. This links a pre-launch contract to the plan without equating it to the full Top 5 promise.

Cooling contract amended

A signed amendment replaced the proposed cooling solution, reduced the global contract value to R$2,424,569.49 and extended the term to 140 days from contracting and purchase order.

2025 plan publication preserves target and clarifies scope

The later publication retains the Top 5-in-five-years promise and R$1.8 billion projection, while explicitly identifying investments already underway and new LNCC expansion investments as action components.

Official statementConfirmed
LNCC and Eviden signed a US$ 19.4 million contract to extend Santos Dumont by 17 PFLOPS.

LNCC's 2024 annual report independently corroborates the contract and value. The MoU described at the forum appears to be a separate ceremonial instrument. No payment stage is inferred.
