Yes, certainly. One industry use-case that comes to mind if Baidu; white-paper link below [1]. Pretty much all the large model developers distribute their model training across hardware in some way, using a blend of GPU/TPU/FPGA accelerators across multiple CPU nodes. Moving all the data around is expensive though, in both power consumption and time, which is why NVIDIA's new system would be of interest.
