IEEE Rolls Out Large Language Models Virtual Training Course

Large language models have moved out of the research lab and into engineers’ daily workflow. LLMs serve as reasoning engines that can orchestrate complex tasks including identifying vulnerabilities in source code and transforming fragmented project discussions into rigorous technical specifications.

While the general public uses AI tools to write email and plan vacations, technical…

GPU advice on 5080

True. GPU prices are skyrocketing all over the world, though the extent varies by country. The surge in prices for VRAM and RAM, plus HDDs, SSDs is really painful…

It’s gotten to the point where they’re actually remanufacturing older-generation GPUs (like the 3060 Ti)… Even Moore would be surprised.

That aside, the reason Copilot treats the RTX 5080 like a landmine is that, until about halfway…

Decentralized Training Can Help Solve AI’s Energy Woes

Artificial intelligence harbors an enormous energy appetite. Such constant cravings are evident in the hefty carbon footprint of the data centers behind the AI boom and the steady increase over time of carbon emissions from training frontier AI models.

No wonder big tech companies are warming up to nuclear energy, envisioning a future fueled by reliable, carbon-free sources. But while…

My new toy: first steps with AI on Linux

Ever since I bought my AI mini workstation from HP, my goal was to run hardware accelerated artificial intelligence workloads in a Linux environment. Read more to learn how things turned out on Ubuntu and Fedora!

I have been using various AI tools for a while now. Generating pictures about some impossible situations, like a dinosaur climbing the Hungarian parliament building, finding information…

KV Cache precision compatibility in Spatial Disaggregation (Prefill-Decode) setups with AWQ/GPTQ models

Hmm… It probably depends on the backend, but there’s usually no need to match the KV cache format to the model weight format.


No. In the usual AWQ and GPTQ deployments, the KV cache does not need to be quantized into the same format as the model weights. The important distinction is that AWQ/GPTQ are primarily weight-quantization schemes , while **KV-cache precision is a separate…

Gateworks GW16168 M.2 AI accelerator features NXP Ara240 DNPU with up to 40 eTOPS

Gateworks has introduced the GW16168, an M.2 AI acceleration card designed to add dedicated neural network processing to embedded and industrial systems. The module integrates NXP’s Ara240 discrete neural processing unit (DNPU) and is designed, tested, and assembled in the United States for industrial edge AI deployments. The GW16168 uses NXP’s Ara240 DNPU to deliver […]

Need help getting started with image generation

Im surprised this all is so much work, given how popular ai appears to be how are there no scripts or easy single click setups?

Yeah. Currently, AI generation-related projects (especially OSS) change so rapidly that the situation can shift within days. Because of this, I think Python (with only the core parts written in high-speed C++, C, or Rust) is often used, prioritizing maintainability…
