The Next LLM Architecture? Innovation in Verification

The Next LLM Architecture? Innovation in Verification
by Bernard Murphy on 10-30-2024 at 6:00 am

Innovation New

LLMs have amazing capabilities but inference run times grow rapidly with the size of the input (prompt) sequence, a significant weakness for some applications in engineering. State space models (SSMs) aim to correct this weakness. Paul Cunningham (GM, Verification at Cadence), Raúl Camposano (Silicon Catalyst, entrepreneur,… Read More

AI Semiconductor Market 2024

AI (artificial intelligence) is widely cited as a growth driver for the technology industry, including semiconductors. While AI is in its early stages, opinions vary on whether it will become common in the next few years. A McKinsey study from May 2024 showed 72% of organizations have adopted AI in at least one business function.… Read More

chatbot list of suggestions min

Arm has been making noise about running large language models (LLMs) on mobile platforms. At first glance that sounds wildly impractical, other than Arm acting as an intermediary between a phone and a cloud-based LLM. However Arm are partnered with Meta to run Llama 3.2 on-device or in the cloud, apparently seamlessly. Running… Read More

earbud2a min

You could be forgiven for thinking of hearing aids as the low end of tech, targeted to a relatively small and elderly audience. Commercials seem unaware of advances in mobile consumer audio, and white-haired actors reinforce the intended audience. On the other hand, the World Health Organization has determined that at least 6%… Read More
