    Inside Pittsburgh Supercomputing Center: Barr von Oehsen on AI Infrastructure, Quantum, and the Keystone Research Factory

    In this episode of Scaling Intelligence, Kevin Jackson speaks with Dr. Barr von Oehsen, Director of the Pittsburgh Supercomputing Center (PSC), about how PSC is helping shape the future of AI infrastructure, quantum computing, and advanced research computing. Barr shares his path from pure mathematics to leading one of the nation’s premier supercomputing centers, then explains why PSC is pushing beyond traditional HPC to support a new era of AI-driven research, shared statewide infrastructure, and quantum readiness. A major focus of the conversation is PSC’s Keystone AI and Quantum Factory initiative, an effort to bring together universities, government, startups, and industry across Pennsylvania to build a more connected and competitive innovation ecosystem. Barr discusses the need for shared compute infrastructure, secure multi-tenant environments, workforce development, edge-to-cloud architectures, and new models for supporting researchers and startups as AI adoption accelerates. The discussion also explores the practical barriers organizations face today, from power and cooling limits to fragmented resources, cloud cost challenges, and the shortage of people who know how to deploy and operate modern AI infrastructure at scale. What you’ll hear in this episode Barr von Oehsen’s journey from pure mathematics into supercomputing leadershipHow PSC is expanding from traditional HPC into AI and quantum computingWhat the Keystone AI and Quantum Factory is and why it mattersWhy Pennsylvania is building a statewide approach to AI infrastructure and workforce developmentThe infrastructure challenges behind modern AI, including power, cooling, data centers, and secure environmentsHow PSC supports researchers, startups, and institutions with advanced computing resourcesWhy workforce development for AI infrastructure is now a strategic priorityHow state-level initiatives may shape the future of U.S. AI competitiveness
