Intel releases Gaudi2
@ 2022/05/12Named after a guy who designed something that would not be finished
Intel launched a new chip called Gaudi2 focused on artificial intelligence computing, as the chip manufacturer makes a bigger push into the AI chip market currently dominated by Nvidia.
Gaudi2 is named after the artist Antoni GaudÃ* who designed the Barcelona Cathedral knowing that it would never be finished until he was long dead.
Gaudi2 is the second-generation processor by Habana Labs, an Israeli AI chip startup Intel bought in late 2019 for about $2 billion. AI chip start-ups have been getting huge investments in recent years as AI computing is one of the fastest-growing areas for data centres.
Chipzilla is doing its best to take market share away from Nvidia has been a challenge as many AI researchers and companies have been accustomed to using Nvidia’s software platform CUDA. Intel said that it has been focusing on its software development.
