TITLE: SCALE-OUT-FIRST MICROARCHITECTURE FOR EFFICIENT AI TRAINING
==============================
PRESENTERS:
Drago Ignjatovic, VP of Silicon Engineering
Davor Capalija, Fellow, ML & Architecture
Jasmina Vasiljevic, Director, Compiler
——————————
TOPIC:
The rapidly growing compute demands and complexity of training AI models necessitate the creation of a new computing architecture that can efficiently enable the unprecedented scale-out to 10s and even 100s of thousands of devices. While many vendors focused primarily on layering the system architecture on top of a ?fundamentally single-device architecture? to address the scale-out challenges, Tenstorrent has designed every aspect of its microarchitecture from the ground up for scale-out to a virtually unlimited number of devices. This presentation will introduce our AI Training architecture and its embodiment in a 12nm Wormhole device, and outline the key features of our scale-out-first microarchitecture.The team will also share about open full-time opportunities during the session. The students will have the opportunity to interact with presenters and other team members of the company.
