AMD's SenseMI is a neural network to predict data fetching. That's quite the opposite of brute force.
They add massive caches as a side effect of having loads of cores enabled by their chipset designs.
- wallacoloo 5y agoDepends on your definition of “brute force”, I guess. Between explicitly deriving some algorithm from an understanding of causal relationships, v.s. training a neural net on billions of samples without encoding any broader understanding of the world, the latter approach is the one I would have called “brute force”.
- xondono 5y agoUsing NN for cache management is not that new, and is a simpler approach in comparison to Intels as far as I know.
