Why Intel Is Investing In Neuromorphic Computing

Intel certainly has a lot of irons in the AI fireplace, including Xeon CPUs, Movidius computer vision chips, MobileEye chips for autonomous driving and Deep Neural Network training and inference processing technology from the newly acquired Habana Labs. With all of...

The Sounds Of The AI Benchmark War: Crickets

NVIDIA once again dominated a near-empty field of AI competitors in MLPerf Inference V2.0. Let’s explore why other chip companies don’t want to play. Industry standard benchmarks have been an important feature of the IT landscape for decades, with SPEC, TPC, and other...

Cerebras Builds Its Own AI Supercomputer, Andromeda

Company stood up an AI Exaflop system in just three days! At Supercomputing ‘22 in Dallas, Texas, startup Cerebras has announced the company has created its own supercomputer, much like NVIDIA has done with Selene. The system, called Andromeda, is composed of 16 CS-2...

Following MSFT & GOOG Lead, AWS Embraces Nvidia And Upgrades Own Chips

As expected, Amazon AWS CEO Adam Selipsky announced updated AWS-engineered AI Training and Arm CPU chips to lower the cost of cloud services. But AWS has a problem: they have kept Nvidia at arm’s length to their detriment as Microsoft Azure increases market share. To...

AMD Goes After NVIDIA With New GPU For The Datacenter
