Arm, Intel, and Nvidia proposed a specification for an 8-bit floating point (FP8) format that could provide a common interchangeable format that works for both AI training and inference and allow AI ...

In March, Nvidia introduced its GH100, the first GPU based on the new “Hopper” architecture, which is aimed at both HPC and AI workloads, and importantly for the latter, supports an eight-bit FP8 ...

Training deep neural networks is one of the more computationally intensive applications running in datacenters today. Arguably, training these models is even more compute-demanding than your average ...
