NVIDIA today announced that the United States Postal Service - the world's largest postal service, with 485 million mail pieces processed and delivered daily - is adopting end-to-end AI technology from NVIDIA to improve its package data processing efficiency. The new system starts with high-performance servers powered by NVIDIA V100 Tensor Core GPUs and deep learning software to train multiple AI algorithms. The trained models are then deployed to NVIDIA EGX edge computing systems at close to 200 Postal Service facilities throughout the U.S. to enable more efficient package data processing. The NVIDIA-powered systems are being purchased by the Postal Service under contract with Hewlett Packard Enterprise.
 
Delivery and testing of the system will start this year and it is expected to be fully operational by spring of 2020.
 
Personally any improvements the USPS can make the better for their customers.

    Interesting concept .... I wonder if it will really be more efficient ... will this control or reduce: Cost or number of employees ?
     
    1)  You will still need the Customer to make a readable label
     
    2) If UPS & FedEx are any indicator -- package condition will get worse with more Automation - they love to mutilate boxes

    Touche....

    Those who abuse power, are nothing but scumbags! The challenge of power is how to use it and not abuse it. The abuse of power that seems to create the most unhappiness is when a person uses personal power to get ahead without regards to the welfare of others, people are obsessed with it. You can take a nice person and turn them into a slob, into an insane being, craving power, destroying anything that stands in their way.
