  Inference is getting its own architectural focus because reasoning and agents place different demands on the system. That is one of many signals in Google's latest TPU strategy. I also like new words. “Boardfly”. Which may have been the most revealing detail in Google's TPU

  Google also announced a new Virgo networking stack with TPU v8. A big part: Massive fabric scale: Virgo Network can link 134,000 chips (TPU 8t) with up to 47 petabits/sec of non-blocking bi-sectional bandwidth in a single fabric. [image]

• @mweinbach Max Weinbach on x

  It seems like the previous TPUs were using x86 for the host system, not Axiom (Google's custom Arm CPU). TPU v8 swaps to Axiom and 2 TPU per CPU. Previously it was 4 TPU per CPU

• @schrep Mike Schroepfer on x

  It is staggering the advances in compute, memory, and bandwidth for AI training and inference. https://blog.google/...

• @mweinbach Max Weinbach on x

  This is for all of the nerds who want to know about TPU v8 Anyone who thinks that TPUs aren't good or viable vs GPUs should think very carefully about their position on this https://cloud.google.com/...

• @patrickmoorhead Patrick Moorhead on x

  Two new TPUs, one for training and one for inference. TPU 8t is the training box: 9,600 chips per superpod, 2+ PB of shared HBM, 121 exaflops, 2.8x the prior generation and 2x better perf/watt vs. prior gen, native FP4 in the MXUs, and Axion Arm hosts. With Pathways and JAX, a [i…
