Hardware

Chips, accelerators and the physical substrate AI runs on.

  • Google TPU 8i

    The inference half of the split, with up to 80% better performance per dollar than Ironwood and 3x the on-chip SRAM.

  • AWS Inferentia

    AWS’s first in-house machine-learning chip, for low-cost inference.

  • Google TPU Trillium (v6e)

    4.7x the peak compute per chip of TPU v5e, with double the HBM capacity and bandwidth.

  • Google TPU Ironwood (TPU7x)

    Built for inference, with 6x Trillium’s HBM capacity and 4.5x its bandwidth.

  • Google TPU 8t

    Google split the line in two; the training chip claims up to 2.7x performance per dollar over Ironwood.

  • Google TPU v5e

    Cost-focused TPU with up to 2x training and 2.5x inference performance per dollar vs TPU v4.

  • Google TPU v5p

    Training TPU with more than 2x the FLOPS and 3x the HBM of TPU v4.

  • Intel Gaudi 2

    Moves to 7nm and triples in-package memory to 96 GB of HBM2E.

  • Intel Gaudi 3

    Moves to 5nm with 4x the BF16 AI compute and 1.5x the memory bandwidth of Gaudi 2.

  • Google TPU v4

    About 2.2x the peak FLOPs of TPU v3 per chip.
