How FP8 boosts LLM training by 18% on Amazon SageMaker P5 instances | Amazon Web Services

Large language models (LLMs) are AI systems trained on vast amounts of text data, enabling them to understand, generate, and reason with natural language in highly capable and flexible ways. LLM training has seen remarkable advances in recent years, with organizations pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in terms of model size, performance, and efficiency. In this post, we explore how FP8 optimization can significantly speed up large model training on Amazon SageMaker P5 instances. LLM training using SageMaker P5 In 2023, SageMaker announced P5 instances, which support up to eight of the latest NVIDIA H100 Tensor Core GPUs. Equipped…

Racing into the future: How AWS DeepRacer fueled my AI and ML journey | Amazon Web Services

Racing into the future: How AWS DeepRacer fueled my AI and ML journey | Amazon Web Services

In 2018, I sat in the audience at AWS re:Invent as Andy Jassy announced AWS DeepRacer—a fully autonomous 1/18th scale race car driven by reinforcement learning. At the time, I knew little about AI or machine learning (ML). As an engineer transitioning from legacy networks to cloud technologies, I had never considered myself a developer. But AWS DeepRacer instantly captured my interest with its promise that even inexperienced developers could get involved in AI and ML. The AWS DeepRacer League was also announced, featuring physical races at AWS Summits worldwide in 2019 and a virtual league in a simulated environment.…

Accelerate analysis and discovery of cancer biomarkers with Amazon Bedrock Agents | Amazon Web Services

According to the National Cancer Institute, a cancer biomarker is a “biological molecule found in blood, other body fluids, or tissues that is a sign of a normal or abnormal process, or of a condition or disease such as cancer.” Biomarkers typically differentiate an affected patient from a person without the disease. Well-known cancer biomarkers include EGFR for lung cancer, HER2 for breast cancer, PSA for prostrate cancer, and so on. The BEST (Biomarkers, EndpointS, and other Tools) resource categorizes biomarkers into several types such as diagnostic, prognostic, and predictive biomarkers that can be measured with various techniques including molecular,…
