الشبكات
The fabrics that turn tens of thousands of accelerators into one machine: scale-up interconnects, scale-out networks and the optics underneath.
ملاحظات ميدانية
الحقيقة غير البراقة للذكاء الاصطناعي الكبير: الشبكة هي التي تحدد كم تستطيع فعلاً الاستفادة من مجموعتك العنقودية بمليار دولار. الحرب التي تستحق المتابعة هي بين إمبراطورية النحاس وشبكة Ethernet المفتوحة — الأقمشة الخاصة بـ NVIDIA في مواجهة المعيار المشترك للجميع.
