Cut Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) Hallucinations by 50%
Most teams hit the same wall with enterprise AI: LLMs that hallucinate, pipelines that don’t scale, and infrastructure that’s harder to design than the models themselves.
What Is Intelligent BOM Management? A Guide to Smarter Product Development
Learn how intelligent Bill of Materials (BOM) management helps teams collaborate, reduce errors, and bring innovative products to market faster with cloud-based PLM tools.
AMD has unveiled (at the recent Computex 2024) a multiyear, expanded AMD Instinct accelerator roadmap which will bring an annual cadence of artificial intelligence (AI) performance and memory capabilities at every generation.
The updated roadmap starts with the new AMD Instinct MI325X accelerator, which will be available in Q4 2024. After that, the AMD Instinct MI350 series, powered by the new AMD CDNA 4 architecture, is expected to be available in 2025 . Expected to arrive in 2026, the AMD Instinct MI400 series is based on the AMD CDNA “Next” architecture.
“The AMD Instinct MI300X accelerators continue their strong adoption from numerous partners and customers including Microsoft Azure, Meta, Dell Technologies, HPE, Lenovo and others, a direct result of the AMD Instinct MI300X accelerator exceptional performance and value proposition,” says Brad McCredie, corporate vice president, Data Center Accelerated Compute, AMD.
The AMD ROCm 6 open software stack continues to mature, enabling AMD Instinct MI300X accelerators to drive performance for popular LLMs. On a server using eight AMD Instinct MI300X accelerators and ROCm 6 running Meta Llama-3 70B, customers can get better inference performance and token generation compared to the competition2. On a single AMD Instinct MI300X accelerator with ROCm 6, customers can get better inference performance and token generation throughput compared to the competition by 1.2x on Mistral-7B3. AMD also highlighted that Hugging Face, the largest and most popular repository for AI models, is now testing 700,000 of their most popular models nightly to ensure they work out of box on AMD Instinct MI300X accelerators. In addition, AMD is continuing its upstream work into popular AI frameworks like PyTorch, TensorFlow and JAX.
During the keynote, AMD revealed an updated annual cadence for the AMD Instinct accelerator roadmap to meet the demand for more AI compute. This will help ensure that AMD Instinct accelerators propel the development of next-generation frontier AI models. The updated AMD Instinct annual roadmap highlighted:
The new AMD Instinct MI325X accelerator, which will bring 288GB of HBM3E memory and 6 terabytes per second of memory bandwidth, use the same Universal Baseboard server design used by the AMD Instinct MI300 series, and be generally available in Q4 2024. The accelerator will have memory capacity and bandwidth.
The first product in the AMD Instinct MI350 Series, the AMD Instinct MI350X accelerator, is based on the AMD CDNA 4 architecture and is expected to be available in 2025. It will use the same Universal Baseboard server design as other MI300 Series accelerators and will be built using advanced 3nm process technology, support the FP4 and FP6 AI datatypes and have up to 288 GB of HBM3E memory.
AMD CDNA “Next” architecture, which will power the AMD Instinct MI400 Series accelerators, is expected to be available in 2026 providing the latest features and capabilities that will help unlock additional performance and efficiency for inference and large-scale AI training.
