My understanding is that grayskull is a devboard for inference, Wormhole is supposed to do both, because you can scale it out with multiple cards.

Do you? From what I can tel tt-metalium gives you quite low level access.
Grayskull/Wormhole/... basically have a bunch of tensix cores, which each have 5 small rv32 cores, where some are used for data movement and some for computation. IIRC two (could be one) drive a SIMT compute unit.
From what I can tell there is no "matrix in matrix out" style fixed accelerator, the SIMT unit looks decently flexible, the grayskull one is a bit limited isa wise, wormhole is supposed to improve on that.
tt-buda is supposed to be the high level API with pytorch, tensorflow, ... support, but idk how much compatibility there is at the moment. I assume there is a lot of software work left.
- qwertox 3y agoWormhole is an accelerated NIC, like what Nvidia got access to when it bought Mellanox. It's meant for high-speed routing. Yet you got me to reading the following: > t-Series Workstations > Our t-series workstations are turnkey solutions for running training and inference on our processors, from a single-user desktop workstation in the t1000 up to the t7000 rack-mounted system designed specifically to function as a host with our Galaxy 4U Server > 8 Grayskull Cards > 16 Grayskull Chips So these cards can also do training. https://tenstorrent.com/systems/aicloud/ https://tenstorrent.com/systems/aicloud/
