Welcome To 2024. It Promises To Be Quite The AI Ride!

2023 has been a fun year in AI, to say the least. OpenAI and ChatGPT changed nearly everything, and the AI revolution is just beginning. Nvidia will ship somewhere around 2 million H100-class GPUs in 2024, AMD is now shipping the MI300, and Intel Gaudi3 is coming...

How To Run Large AI Models On An Edge Device

It can be done, but it requires the edge device vendor to work to optimize the model. A hybrid approach can also extend the applicability of LLMs by combining Cloud and Edge processing. When most people think of Artificial Intelligence (AI), they imagine a berserk...

Ventana Micro Brings RISC-V Into The Data Center

Company hopes to match or even exceed x86 and Arm performance for data center infrastructure and applications. The data center is becoming more heterogeneous in terms of customized processors, accelerating new workloads across the infrastructure to optimize data...

Cerebras Gets Into The Inference Market With A Bang

Cerebras’ Wafer-Scale Engine has only been used for AI training, but new software enables leadership inference processing performance and costs. Should Nvidia be afraid? As Cerebras prepares to go public, it has expanded its target markets and competitive stance by...

How Enfabrica Is Reimagining, And Disrupting, The AI Data Center

The AIHW and Edge AI Summit had a treasure trove of insightful presentations from luminaries such as Andrew Ng, Lip-Bu Tan, Marc Tremblay, and many others. I hope to get around to writing about what I learned, but first, I want to share the innovations from a startup...

Qiskit Comes Of Age With Quantum Performance, New Features From IBM

Qiskit has emerged as the go-to development platform for quantum coders, with over 550,000 users developing quantum circuits to run on quantum machines from eight vendors. IBM Research launched Qiskit (the "Quantum Information Science Kit") in 2017 to provide...

Cadence Supercomputer Appliance Enables Full-Scale Digital Twins

Computational Fluid Dynamics, or CFD, software simulates the flow of fluids around an object in fine detail and is indispensable to auto and aerospace manufacturers. But it takes a lot of FLOPS to simulate how a full system (a car, plane, jet engine, ...) behaves in...

Synopsys Creates Cloud OpenLink For Cross-Vendor EDA Collaboration

When you put a chip project in the hands of a cloud service like Synopsys Cloud, how do you integrate the “other” vendor tools in your EDA workflow? That's the question Synopsys is trying to answer. Synopsys launched its Synopsys Cloud offering last year and is seeing...

NovuMind: An Early AI Chip Startup

Last fall, a bit of nerdy controversy arose around AI chip startup NovuMind when the company announced its first low-power chip for processing neural networks. The company claimed that its patented design could natively process 3-D tensor data far more efficiently...

Intel Innovation: AI Everywhere

That phrase has dual meanings: AI will run everywhere, and AI was everywhere at the event. Pat Gelsinger’s keynote made it clear where Intel plans to innovate: AI. No surprise to anyone with a pulse, to be sure, but his enthusiasm was infectious. Every Intel employee...
