Years of working with large-scale distributed systems have reinforced a lesson that only becomes clearer with time: ...

Running a large language model is expensive, and a surprising amount of that cost comes down to memory, not computation. Every time a model like Gemini or GPT-4 processes a long document or sustains a ...

Enterprises locked in GPU capacity during the AI scramble. Now utilization sits at 5% and the bill is due. Here's what the data says about where the market is heading.

I’m looking at Vic Michaelis sideways…Literally. It’s Friday afternoon, two days after Dropout held its first-ever Emmys FYC ...

As traditional chip miniaturization slows, researchers have found a way to pack more computing power into the same space by stacking silicon circuits in multiple layers. The new process uses ...

The real headline is what ZAYA1-8B was trained on: a full stack of AMD Instinct MI300 graphics processing units (GPUs), the rival to Nvidia GPUs.

Microsoft Edge just stopped storing your passwords in plaintext - but you'll need the latest update ...

For decades, the computing industry has followed a simple formula: make transistors smaller and pack more of them onto a chip. That strategy fueled ...

Every RDS MySQL read replica is a regular database instance. It runs, it consumes compute and storage, and it bills at the same hourly rate as any other instance of the same class. The fact that it is ...

Simon Calder signs off with a journey through the past three decades ‘working’ in the industry of human happiness ...

For more than half a century, the power of computers has grown by shrinking transistors and packing them more tightly onto flat chips. It worked too well. Devices are now becoming so small that they ...
