ML Commons Unveils MLPerf Training v2.0 | Gestalt IT Rundown: June 29, 2022

The artificial intelligence community is buzzing about the just-released ML Commons MLPerf Training v2.0 results, which were announced today. NVIDIA, Intel Habana, Google, and Graphcore all submitted at least partial results, and everyone is crowing about their performance. NVIDIA is the only one to cover the field, and has a strong showing despite still relying on their A100 GPUs. Intel's Habana Gaudi 2 also shows great performance per watt in the tests they submitted, with the Graphcore Bow IPU and Google TPUv4 trailing somewhat. How do we make sense of all this ML training hardware?
