A CEO's job is to set the overall vision, recruit amazing talent, and make sure there's money in the bank. If a company wants to change the world, they can't forget #3. In fact it's probably the most important because #1

The training accuracy won't match. Here's an excerpt from a presentation on FP16 training to give you an idea of the loss in accuracy: Mode | Top1 accuracy, % | Top5 accuracy, % ----------------------

Stephen from Lambda here. These are, to our knowledge, the first public Deep Learning benchmarks for the 2080 Ti on actual hardware. We've provided all of the code and tooling to reproduce these results yourself so, if you have a 2080

Writing software on windows is like using chopsticks with mittens. You can do it, it’s not pretty, and it’s not the use case the mitten sewer had in mind during development. Read the Unix Programming Environment to see the exact opposite

The 2080Ti numbers are likely going to be a lot lower than that. We’ve benched the 1080Ti vs the Titan V and the Titan V is nowhere near 2x faster at training than the 1080Ti as suggested in that graph. We observed a 30% to 40% speedup duri

Most people I know who publish in NIPS/ICLR train their models using between 1-4 GPUs under their desk or 8 GPUs in a server. I would argue that these folks make competitive models and "are successful in their business" with

It's far from a nonsense purchase for Deep Learning professionals. At https://lambdalabs.com nearly every one of our customers is calling us up interested in the 2080Ti for Deep Learning. The reality is that very few people

Cool side note, introducing Prof. Dijkstra was a younger Eric Schmidt during his tenure as a software engineering manager at Sun. I wonder where all of the other lectures are? Somebody should repost them.

Choice in the marketplace is still choice. And, Google might eventually decide to sell this to outside companies. Eventually the desire to build competitive advantages for Google Cloud might be surpassed by the desire to compete with NVIDIA

I'm not as pessimistic. 3dfx and Matrox didn't look like easy to knock out opponents in the 90s and yet here we are. Markets are powerful incentive mechanisms. "Slowly grinds the mill of the gods, but it grinds fine."

This is great news. It’s extremely important to the research community that large companies enter into the DL silicon space to contend with NVIDIA’s monopoly. NVIDIA is now exerting pricing power to the point where they’ve decided to train

The bad news is that a lot of system builders like us (we build pre-built systems pre-installed with Deep Learning software http://lambdalabs.com ) are now used to paying more than MSRP for our GPUs. MSRP for a 1080Ti is supposed

Yes, we looked into Brand Registry -- this is my first time seeing the Brand Gating, which looks like it would solve this problem. Thanks for bringing that to my attention. In general, I think there's frustration for smaller companies

Any plans to support AMD GPUs and the Radeon Open Compute project? The AI/ML community really needs viable alternatives to NVIDIA, otherwise they will continue to flex pricing power. Google, via TensorFlow, is in a phenomenal position
