Задача, которую взялась решать компания, хорошо знакома всем, кто разворачивал инференс больших моделей. Вычислительные блоки простаивают, пока ждут данные из памяти. Чем крупнее модель, тем острее эта проблема — и тем сложнее и дороже обойти ее в «традиционных» GPU. Что предлагает стартап и что это за устройство, которое... Read more
