Why wouldn't inference follow diurnal patterns?

Why wouldn't inference follow diurnal patterns?
- reaperman 4y agoAgreed. That seems backwards. Training would not follow circadian rhythms, inference would.
- vitus 4y agoI should clarify: training is not latency sensitive, so you can run your workloads at off-peak hours when people are asleep. Inference means you need to run your workloads at peak when people are using your service. (Looking back, I'm happy that I was careful in my wording in that I didn't say diurnal cycles aren't relevant, just that they aren't as useful in this case) That said, I suppose I misread the specific suggestion about spinning down servers off-peak and was thinking more about spot pricing at peak vs trough.
