Cisco Unveils Speedy AI Networking Chip
Training advanced artificial intelligence (AI) models requires an enormous investment in hardware. High-powered servers, equipped with tens of thousands of GPUs and untold amounts of memory, are required to churn through the gargantuan amount of training data that gives any AI model its smarts.
GPT-4, the latest large language model from OpenAI, reportedly cost more than $100 million to train on trillions of words of text. Raw compute power is critical for this process, and Nvidia's ultra-powerful GPUs fill that role, but networking is also important. Data needs to be moved quickly to feed all the powerful processors doing the AI training.
Cisco Systems (NASDAQ: CSCO) is the market leader in enterprise switches and routers, providing hardware and software that connects servers together and connects data centers to the internet. The company also designs networking chips, catering to companies needing more control over their networks.
