GraphCore Goes Full 3D With AI Chips

The 3D stacking of chips has been the subject of much speculation and innovation in the past decade, and we will be the first to admit that we have been mostly thinking about this as a way to cram more capacity into a given compute engine while at the same time getting components closer together along the Z axis and not just working in 2D anymore down on the X and Y axes.

Graphcore Shows GAN Gains for CERN

While securing the high-end particle physics market segment is not likely to push any of the AI/ML ASICS into competition with GPUs anytime soon, the chipmakers that can prove their value on some of the most demanding, real-time AI workloads can capture some serious mindshare.
