[NLPL Task Force (A)] Student access for saga/puhti

[Artur Kulmizev]

Hi Stephan,

Thanks for getting back to me. I advised the student to apply to Saga and to be careful with job volume/resources. I’ll keep an eye on his usage and see how things go.

Best,

-Artur

I don’t anticipate him using it often - just for a few simple diagnostic experiments. He won’t be training language models, MT systems, or parsers. If it’s possible, should I have him contact this address directly? Or should he just submit an application to either Puhti or Saga?
