Interest rates are a mean to control the expected inflation, not the realized one. The expected inflation for 2024 is 36%, which means the current interest rates are sufficient to settle it.

Have you seen fal.ai/dynamic where you can perform image to image synthesis (basically editing an existing image with the help of diffusion process) using LCMs to provide a real time UI?

This is indeed a bit weird, one interesting update we released just now is allowying you to change the seed so see different variations of the same prompt+input combination. Also what I have noticed is, if you describe what you meant with a

Seems like the underlying die is basically the same as H100, with just a wider memory bus (and potentially changed IMC?). Which is very nice to see, since with H100 especially for inference workloads, the main problem was always memory band

Would be happy to give you a hand at this and let you started using fal.ai with to run some of the more advanced diffusion models (with free credits if this is more of an hobby/art-style project, although SDXL with reasonable settings

L40S might be a more appealing choice if you are switching from an A40, but then why the hell aren't you using A100 which is actually much cheaper and much more commonly available. The only perceivable reason I can see is fp8 support,

by treesciencebot 3y ago
L40S sound good on paper, but the memory bandwith compared to even a 40G A100 is reduced in half which is crazy in the era when we are bottlenecked by it rather than the actual compute. It costs as much (or even more) than an 80G A100, but

Especially for these kinds of rather artistic use cases, I'd rather see it using some of the open source models which might cost almost an order of magnitude less (disclaimer, I might be biased towards extremely good price/perf of
