AI/ML training traditionally has been performed using floating point data formats, primarily because that is what was available. But this usually isn’t a viable option for inference on the edge, where ...
The chip designer says the Instinct MI325X data center GPU will best Nvidia’s H200 in memory capacity, memory bandwidth and peak theoretical performance for 8-bit floating point and 16-bit floating ...
New Linear-complexity Multiplication (L-Mul) algorithm claims it can reduce energy costs by 95% for element-wise tensor multiplications and 80% for dot products in large language models. It maintains ...
In pursuit of faster and more efficient AI system development, Intel, Arm and Nvidia today published a draft specification for what they refer to as a common interchange format for AI. While voluntary ...
Essentially all AI training is done with 32-bit floating point. But doing AI inference with 32-bit floating point is expensive, power-hungry and slow. And quantizing models for 8-bit-integer, which is ...
Behind the hype is a newly surfaced Tesla patent that sheds light on how the company is rethinking the most fundamental ...
