Submission + - Tesla unveils Dojo supercomputer: world's new most powerful AI training machine (electrek.co)
Darth Technoid writes: At its AI Day, Tesla unveiled its Dojo supercomputer technology while flexing its growing in-house chip design talent.
The automaker claims to have developed the fastest AI training machine in the world.
For years now, Tesla has been teasing the development of a new supercomputer in-house optimized for neural net video training.
Tesla is handling an insane amount of video data from its fleet of over 1 million vehicles, which it uses to train its neural nets.
The automaker found itself unsatisfied with current hardware options to train its computer vision neural nets and believed it could do better internally.
Over the last two years, CEO Elon Musk has been teasing the development of Tesla’s own supercomputer called “Dojo.”
Last year, he even teased that Tesla’s Dojo would have a capacity of over an exaflop, which is one quintillion (1018) floating-point operations per second, or 1,000 petaFLOPS.
It could potentially makes Dojo the new most powerful supercomputer in the world.
