Habana launches new chips for training and inference, claiming 2X performance advantage over last generation NVIDIA A100
Habana launched their 1st chip at the inaugural Kisaco AI Hardware Summit in 2018 with excellent performance and efficiency. Unfortunately for Habana, there was not much interest in a market that didn’t yet exist: AI accelerators for running, not training, AI neural net models. Nonetheless, Intel acquired Habana in 2019 for $2B shortly after Habana launched the Gaudi training chip, which had enough performance to earn a coveted design win at Amazon AWS.
Intel has fervently left the Habana team alone since the acquisition, buffered from the meddling but helpful Intel design teams and media attempts to gauge their progress. Their efforts have finally paid off nicely, with a new Goya and Gaudi generation being launched today at the Intel VisiON event. To sum it up, the new Habana chip will appeal to those looking for an alternative to NVIDIA and willing to make the changes to their software to run AI models well.
