I hate Discord with the intensity of a supernova falling into a black hole. I hate its ungainly profusion of tabs and voice channels. I regret its cybersecurity breaches. I resent that the PRs use it ...

Nvidia just paid $20 billion for Groq's inference technology in what is the semiconductor giant's largest deal ever. The question is: Why would the company that already dominates AI training pay this ...

Microsoft has announced the launch of its latest chip, the Maia 200, which the company describes as a silicon workhorse designed for scaling AI inference. The 200, which follows the company’s Maia 100 ...

Abstract: This letter extends the exactly sparse Gaussian variational inference (ESGVI) algorithm for state estimation in two complementary directions. First, ESGVI is generalized to operate on matrix ...

The creators of the open source project vLLM have announced that they transitioned the popular tool into a VC-backed startup, Inferact, raising $150 million in seed funding at an $800 million ...

Google researchers have warned that large language model (LLM) inference is hitting a wall amid fundamental problems with memory and networking problems, not compute. In a paper authored by ...

In recent years, the big money has flowed toward LLMs and training; but this year, the emphasis is shifting toward AI inference. LAS VEGAS — Not so long ago — last year, let’s say — tech industry ...

Abstract: We propose a control barrier function (CBF) formulation for enforcing equality and inequality constraints in variational inference. The key idea is to define a barrier functional on the ...

In Bayesian statistics, the choice of the prior can have an important influence on the posterior and the parameter estimation, especially when few data samples are available. To limit the added ...
