AMD's game plan to become a machine learning giant

AMD's game plan to become a machine learning giant

Right now, the market for GPUs for use in machine learning is essentially a market of one: Nvidia. AMD, the only other major discrete GPU vendor of consequence, holds around 30 percent of the market for total GPU sales compared to Nvidia's 70 percent. For machine-learning work, though, Nvidia's lead is near-total.

Machine Learning: Beware the Bias

Machine Learning: Beware the Bias

In the past year or so, I've been struck by how we tend to anthropomorphize the machines and mechanize the human beings whose data we rely on. The machines are "ingesting," "consuming," and "learning," while people's life stories, videos and loved-ones photos --the meaningful moments of their lives -- are flattened into consumable "documents" or "transactions."
