Hopper's FPA, Importance and Transformer Engine
Big breakthrough for Hopper is recognizing that quantization has a fair amount of innovation and ability to reduce. And we believe that eight-bit floating point rather than if you look at scientific computing today, 64- bit floating point. So just by breaking up 64 into eight, you could increase the performance of an AI supercomputer just by a factor of eight by not doing 64-bit. But those are all kind of brute forcey things. The big architecture idea is FPA, influent and transformer engine. Otherwise, it's the largest ship the world's ever made. It's the fastest ship the world’s ever made and super energy efficient and uses the fast memories of the
