If that really is true it's amazing, however the current fastest is only 1 exaFLOP.

I don’t think it’s made it into production yet. Here’s a list of the fastest supercomputers as of June 2022: https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2022/06/fastest-supercomputers-frontier-exascale/

This is the known publicly disclosed list of fastest computers. China stopped sharing info on theirs for national security reasons; they are suspected to have at least one that's higher than the top on this list. It would not be surprising if other countries like the US had military-funded supercomputers larger than the top one on the list as well.

AI supercomputers are not the same as a normal supercomputer (though the author may not have intended to refer to normal supercomputers given the response). Different precision, AI supercomputers already way ahead. That said, a lot of this stuff already did happen.
