Comment on Vsora Jotunn-8 5nm European inference chip

Comments

How does this compare to Euclyds product (another new EU AI chip company)?

https://euclyd.ai/

I'm sorry I won't share much details, I don't think much is public on Vsora architecture and don't want to breach any NDA...

From their web page Euclyd is a "many small cores" accelerator. Doing good compilation toolchains for these to get efficient results is a hard problem, see many comments on compilers for AI in this thread.

Vsora approach is much more macroscopic, and differentiated. By this I mean I don't know anything quite like it. No sea of small cores, but several more beefy units. They're programmable, but don't look like a CPU: the HW/SW interface is at a higher level. A very hand-wavy analogy with storage would be block devices vs object storage, maybe. I'm sure more details will surface when real HW arrive.
