Can future gen GPUs bridge the gap? The NVIDIA CEO seemed really confident when asked previously about the challenge that specialized AI chips posed. Is his confidence misplaced/just bluster or what?
- slivym 8y agoThe hardware platform for self-driving cars isn't just Sensor -> AI Chip -> Steering wheel. There will be custom chips for accelerating some of the hardest parts of the algorithm, but there's no reason not to think there'll be a significant Nvidia chip in there too.
- twtw 8y agoProbably current gen GPUs can bridge the gap. The nvidia platform after Drive PX 2 (which is what Tesla ships) uses Volta (with "tensor cores" to speed up fp16) and has a deep learning accelerator (http://nvdla.org http://nvdla.org) for inference (i think both int8 and fp16).
