नेटवर्किंग
The fabrics that turn tens of thousands of accelerators into one machine: scale-up interconnects, scale-out networks and the optics underneath.
फील्ड नोट्स
बड़े AI की वह अनाकर्षक सच्चाई: network तय करता है कि आपके अरब-डॉलर के cluster का कितना हिस्सा आप वाकई इस्तेमाल कर पाते हैं। आगे चलने वाली जंग है copper साम्राज्य बनाम open Ethernet — NVIDIA के private fabric बनाम बाकी सबके shared standard।
