Artificial intelligence performance is increasingly constrained by memory rather than arithmetic throughput. Scaling laws show that model quality improves when parameter count, training data, and compute grow together, but this balance fails when processors cannot obtain operands quickly enough. Contemporary accelerators… Read More
