Evidently there are issues with random validation errors on the Titan V for scientific work units. Thought some might want to look at this if they notice an unusual amount of errors that can't be traced. https://www.theregister.co.uk/2018/03/21/nvidia_titan_v_reproducibility/ ID: 1926219 ·

Well, may be just sync issue as with our apps. This generation take parallelism further so new missing sync point can surface. AMBER can have such bugs too, And sync errors can result in non-reproducible declination in correct answers indeed. One should be very careful when point to "add" errors instead.
