Последние пару лет, кажется, невозможно поговорить об AI в разработке, чтобы разговор не упирался в тему производительности.Отовсюду постоянно вылезают новые истории успеха. Кто-то показывает, как сократил время разработки в несколько раз. Кто-то рассказывает, что теперь пишет за день столько кода, сколько раньше писал за неделю. Иные вообще собирают полноценный продукт за выходные и искренне не понимают, почему раньше на это уходили месяцы. Честно говоря – раньше читал, но в последнее... Read more ›

The most consequential line in Intel’s Computex announcement was not about a chip. It was about a ratio. As AI workloads move from training to inference, the company argued, the long-standing arrangement of four GPUs to every CPU collapses towards something closer to one to one, and the processor Intel actually sells well moves back […] This story continues at The Next Web Read more ›

Uber said “multi-hundred-million” and meant something closer to half a billion. The ride-hailing company’s commitment to self-driving start-up Nuro is near $500m, according to sources directly aware of the matter, a figure that reframes a partnership Uber had described in vaguer terms and reveals a follow-on investment significantly larger than its first.
