Efficient power delivery is achieved with startup PowerLattice’s voltage regulator chiplets, boosting AI data center performance.
no it wont, they still have to peddle AI as a product to buyers, right now its only c-suites and ceo obsessing overit.
How about we just get rid of LLMs entirely? Surely that would save even more power.
Yeah, but where’s the profit in that?
I mean … there appears to be no profit in LLMs either but they are still cranking along …
I assumed I didn’t need a /s, but I guess I did
No.
The comments never disappoint.
Did you tell them that? They’re gonna waste a lot of energy cause they think it will.
We need analog and probabilistic chips to make this efficient.
Employing the chiplets can reduce 50 percent of power needs for an operator, effectively doubling performance, the company claims.
Reducing power consumption is good but those efficiency gains don’t directly translate to better performance. That claim is a stretch at best.
The regulator is designed to be installed in very close proximity to the chip it powers. I wonder what kind of impact it would have on the chips ability to disapate heat since the regulator itself would be generating heat as well.
