DRAM and VRAM pricing expected to climb in Q3, you can thank server demand for that
In context: Demand for GPUs and other AI accelerators isn't expected to decrease anytime soon, and the cost of DRAM will be directly influenced by the strong "generative bubble" we are experiencing right now. Market intelligence company TrendForce has made some estimations for the third quarter of the year, and, unsurprisingly, prices are going up.
Energy-efficient AI model could be a game changer, 50 times better efficiency with no performance hit
Cutting corners: Researchers from the University of California, Santa Cruz, have devised a way to run a billion-parameter-scale large language model using just 13 watts of power – about as much as a modern LED light bulb. For comparison, a data center-grade GPU used for LLM tasks requires around 700 watts.
