At that price 568 chips would be $11.7M
- tome 3y agoYeah, I don't know what the cost to us is to build out our own hardware but it's significantly less expensive than retail.
- WiSaGaN 3y agoThat seems to be per card instead of chip. I would expect it has multiple chips on a single card.
- renewiltord 3y agoFrom the description that doesn't seem to be the case, but I don't know this product well > Accelerator Cards GroqCard low latency AI/ML Inference PCIe accelerator card with single GroqChip
- WiSaGaN 3y agoMissed that! Thanks for pointing out!
- fennecbutt 3y agoI presume that's because it's a custom asic not yet in mass production? If they can get costs down and put more dies into each card then it'll be business/consumer friendly. Let's see if they can scale production. Also, where tf is the next coral chip, alphabet been slacking hard.
- bethekind 3y agoI think Coral has been taken to the wooden shed out back. Nothing new out of them for years sadly
- fennecbutt 3y agoYeah. And it's a real shame bc even before LLMs got big I was thinking, couple generations down the line and coral would be great for some home automation/edge AI stuff. Fortunately LLMs and hard work of clever peeps running em on commodity hardware are starting to make this possible anyway. Because Google Home/Assistant just seems to keep getting dumber and dumber...
