Not that I would ever literally do that over a song, but basically anything grating like death metal and scremo, as well as disturbed’s cover of “sound of silence” all make me want to get away from that abusive noise as fast as possible. About as close as normal decibel sound can get to physical pain for me.
The guy who is pulling his helmet up has so much power in this moment. I’m glad for him there’s photos to prove it because I would never have believed him if he told me this story.
Why use commercial graphics accelerators to run a highly limited “AI”-unique work set? There are specific cards made to accelerate machine learning things that are highly potent with far less power draw than 3090’s.
Not if it’s for inference only. What do you think the “AI accelerators” they’re putting in phones now are? Do you think they’d be as expensive or power hungry as an entire 3090 for performance if they were putting them in small devices?
Yeah show me a phone with 48GB RAM. It’s a big factor to consider. Actually, some people are recommending a Mac Studio cause you can get it with 128GB RAM and more and it’s shared with the AI/GPU accelerator. Very energy efficient, but sucks as soon as you want to do literally anything other than inference
I wouldn’t say it particularly sucks. It could be used as a powerhouse hosting server. Docker makes it very easy to do no matter the os now a days. Really though I’d say its competition is more along the lines of ampere systems in terms of power to performance. It even beats amperes 128 core arm cpu at a power to performance ratio which is extremely impressive in the server/enterprise world. Not to say you’re gonna see them in data centers because price to performance is a thing as well. I just feel like it fits right into the niche it was designed for.
Would you link one? Because the only things I know of are the small coral accelerators that aren’t really comparable, and specialised data centre stuff you need to request quotes for to even get a price, from companies that probably aren’t much interested in selling one direct to customer.
