Nvidia has set six new records for how fast an AI model can be trained using a predetermined group of datasets.
MLPerf is a benchmark suite of tests created by prominent companies in the space to standardize and provide guidelines for how to measure AI training and inference speed. MLPerf is often used to share the speed of commercially available cloud computing services, mobile devices, or hardware in server hardware stacks.
Companies who contributed to the creation of MLPerf include Google, Nvidia, Baidu, and supercomputer maker Cray.
The rapid rise in compute power has played a major role in the emergence of AI as an influential force in technology, business, and society in recent years.
