Big AI Inference Has Become A Big Deal And A Bigger Business

Thanks to innovations like DeepSeek, training AI has become cheaper. However, inference is becoming more demanding as we ask AI to think harder before answering our questions. Nvidia, Groq, and Cerebras Systems (clients of Cambrian-AI Research) have all released...

Microsoft Builds Massive Supercomputer For OpenAI, But Whose Chips Are Inside?

Microsoft has announced that the company has built a top 5 AI supercomputer for OpenAI, hosted in the Azure cloud. Microsoft invested a billion dollars in the OpenAI industry research group in 2019. The massive system is comprised of some 10,000 GPUs and over 285,000...

NVIDIA Launches Ampere A100 GPU For Data Center Computing And AI

Figure 1: NVIDIA shared performance comparisons across a range of precisions. Note the huge performance increase for sparse matrix operations. Note the banks of 6 HBM chips. image:NVIDIA While many of us missed watching Jensen Huang on stage in his trademark leather...

Will AMD’s MI300 Beat NVIDIA In AI?

The upcoming MI300, which will ship Latter this year after NVIDIA’s Grace/Hopper Superchip, certainly has a shot at it. But there remain a lot of unknowns that will determine how well it performs for AI applications. And then there is Software. Yeah, Software. Lots of...

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...

BrainChip Readies 2nd Gen Platform For Power-Efficient Edge AI

The company’s event-based digital Neuromorphic IP can add efficient AI processing to SoCs. Edge AI is becoming a thing. Instead of using just an embedded microprocessor in edge applications and sending the data to a cloud for AI processing, many edge companies are...

If You Love AI, Do Not Miss NVIDIA GTC This Year!

I just got an email from NVIDIA touting this year’s GTC event (April 12-16) and have to share this with you, in case you haven’t already heard. The virtual graphics, AI, and HPC event will headline AI pioneers Yoshua Bengio (University of Montreal), Geoffrey Hinton...

Cadence Design Is Working With Renesas To Build The World’s First LLM Tool For Up-Front Chip Design

The company sees this as an augmentation, not a replacement, for its portfolio of reinforcement learning AI tools that improve the productivity of chip design teams, addressing the most challenging part of chip design. Cadence has been aggressively rolling out...

IBM Research Innovates “Serverless” Approach To Quantum

Quantum computing promises near-miraculous performance, but it comes with a lot of caveats. Most importantly, the problem being solved must be amenable to expression into the quantum “circuits” that can run on todays hardware. But what if only parts of the problem fit...

Cambridge Quantum Computing: Taking The Open Source Route

Cambrian-AI Research Sr. Analyst Gary Fritz contributed this blog. AI has been advancing dramatically in the last decade. It is able to solve classes of problems (facial recognition, machine translation, autonomous vehicles, and others) that were not suitably handled...
