>>...NPU performance, which will be as fast as 45 TOPs... It doesn't say if this is at INT8 data type. I think this is INT8.

Simply to note: Intel evaluates performance of its latest hardware with already outdated line of NVIDIA H100 accelerators.

Here a couple of comments... - A source for that leak is Very Questionable - Intel AVX-512 ISA is a Complete Tech Disaster ( * ) ( * ) It is based on my experience using an Intel Xeon Phi server. We reached its performance limitations in less than 4 weeks after a project was started.

## Summary of All verifications I've completed on Linux systems around me ## Ubuntu Server 20.04 for RISC-V ( with Desktop UI Manager ) root@ubuntu:~# xz --version xz (XZ Utils) 5.2.4 liblzma 5.2.4 ## Ubuntu Server 20.04 for RISC-V ( without Desktop UI Manager...

As a matter of fact XZ utility and XZ archives are widely used! Here are examples: [ Ubuntu RISC-V images ] cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/22.04.3/release/ubuntu-22.04.3-preinstalled-server-riscv64+unmatched.img.xz...

>>...While Zhouyi may not directly compete with offerings from AMD or Intel... NVIDIA should be added as well. This is a low-end Single Board Computer ( SBC ) and it can Not be used at data centers.

What is new here? SetPixel Win32 API function is a part of Windows GDI subsystem for more than 30 years! It allows to change the color of a pixel at coordinates X and Y. This is how SetPixel is declared in wingdi.h header file: COLORREF SetPixel( HDC hdc, //...

Unfortunately, No. All performance gains of NVIDIA H200 over NVIDIA H100 are due to faster memory. NVIDIA H200 is faster in MLPerf for ~1.4x. Calculate it as follows: 4.8 TB/s divide by 3.35 TB/s and it equals ~1.43.

>>...We anticipate that with further optimization, Gaudi2 will soon outperform A100s... There are several versions of NVIDIA x100-series accelerators, that is Non-PCI-e and PCI-e, and it is Not clear what was actually used. NVIDIA A100 accelerators are almost 4-year-old ( released in 2020 )...

Just reviewed a default page on github. Guys, the software has Too Many external dependencies ( AWS account, two SQL databases on AWS, and Docker )! ... External Dependencies: AWS Services The Continuous Profiler incorporates specific AWS services as essential components. These dependencies...

Completed a very quick-and-dirty set of tests of StarCoder2 model ( Big / 15B ) on HuggingFace website. Some test codes generated from my prompts were absolutely Not related to what I wanted to see. For example: My prompt: Initialize an array of long double variables of single floating point...

>>...statements made by executives at rival chipmaker Groq and former AMD executive... These companies are direct competitors of NVIDIA and they will do whatever it takes to harm business of NVIDIA! Are there any complaints from Meta ( recently ordered 350,000 NVIDIA GPUs ), Amazon, or X...

I don't think you're the only one who thinks about it! Intel, AMD and ARM are very concerned that NVIDIA stepped into the CPU-server market with a new generation system ( CPU+GPU ). It is possible that the work was financially supported by one of these companies, of course Not directly...

Attention! There are a lot of issues and inconsistencies in the article and results. - It is from academia and in some cases academia researches are good at writing publications rather than delivering high quality HPC production codes Note: Show me a piece of code and I'll tell you if it...

Take into account that Canon also makes Digital Processors and CMOS sensors for digital cameras. If Canon repurposes at least one factory for making computing chips ( a Foundry Service for external clients! ) it will be a really right step forward.
