Nvidia Says Its Blackwell Chip Is Fine, Nothing to See Here

stp2y0 CommentsAI, , , ,
A large portion of Nvidia’s growth this quarter was driven by data center revenue, totaling $30.8 billion for the quarter, which was up 112 percent from last year. The company’s gross profit margin was 74.5 percent, essentially flat from a year ago. But analysts expect that Nvidia’s margins could shrink as the company shifts to producing more Blackwell chips, which cost more to make than their less advanced predecessors.Nvidia’s earnings reports are seen as an important bellwether for the AI industry as a whole. The chip architect’s advanced GPUs, which power complex neural network processing, are what made the current…

Here’s a fresh look at the Half-Life 2 RTX remaster

stp2y0 CommentsNews, , , ,
We initially about a team modding an RTX remaster of Half-Life 2 last August. Today, NVIDIA released a trailer giving fans a behind-the-scenes look at Orbifold Studios' efforts to apply more modern graphics tools to the iconic title. The video highlights the RTX Remix engine and how the team is using it to make visual upgrades to a game with an engine two decades old. They have examples of how they're creating more dynamic light sources, volumetric fog in moody areas, and full 3D detail on the objects in the environment.The crew at Orbifold still doesn't have a release date…

How to run for inference Llama-3_1-Nemotron-51B-Instruct?

stp2y0 CommentsNews, , , , , , , , ,
The large language model (LLM) Llama-3_1-Nemotron-51B-Instruct provides an excellent balance between model efficiency and correctness. This model was created by NVIDIA employing a revolutionary Neural Architecture Search (NAS) technique that significantly lowers the model's memory footprint, allowing for higher workloads and model fitting on a single GPU at high workloads. This makes it possible to choose a preferred point in the accuracy-efficiency tradeoff. 40 billion tokens of data centered on English single-turn and multi-turn chat use cases were used to refine the model. Neural Architecture Search (NAS) and knowledge distillation are powerfully combined in the Llama-3.1-Nemotron-51B. These methods greatly lower…

If you got this when callling ncu-ui: Cannot mix incompatible Qt library (5.15.3) with this library (5.15.2) Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode Thanks to this godsend Stack Overflow answer, you can fix by doing: $ wget -q 'http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/main/q/qtbase-opensource-src/libqt5network5_5.15.2+dfsg-9+deb11u1_amd64.deb' $ dpkg -x libqt5network5_5.15.2+dfsg-9+deb11u1_amd64.deb . $ sudo cp -P usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libQt5Network.so* /usr/lib/nsight-compute/host/linux-desktop-glibc_2_11_3-x64/ $ sudo cp -P usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libQt5Network.so* /usr/lib/nsight-systems/host-linux-x64/ Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode Now you should be able to launch it: Source link lol

NVIDIA’s ACE virtual human tech is making its way into an actual game

stp2y0 CommentsNews, ,
A game developer called Amazing Seasun Games is demonstrating NVIDIA's Avatar Cloud Engine (ACE) technology through its upcoming multiplayer mecha game Mecha BREAK at Gamescom this year. NVIDIA unveiled ACE at Computer 2023, presenting it as a "custom AI model foundry service" that developers can use to make their games more interactive. Specifically, it will allow players to interact with NPCs without the constraints of pre-programmed conversations and will be able to give them appropriate responses.When NVIDIA launched the technology, it showed a player talking to an NPC called Jin at a ramen shop. The player asked how the character…

NVIDIA’s AI team reportedly scraped YouTube, Netflix videos without permission

stp2y0 CommentsNews, , , , ,
In the latest example of a troubling industry pattern, NVIDIA appears to have scraped troves of copyrighted content for AI training. On Monday, 404 Media’s Samantha Cole reported that the $2.4 trillion company asked workers to download videos from YouTube, Netflix and other datasets to develop commercial AI projects. The graphics card maker is among the tech companies appearing to have adopted a “move fast and break things” ethos as they race to establish dominance in this feverish, too-often-shameful AI gold rush.The training was reportedly to develop models for products like its Omniverse 3D world generator, self-driving car systems and…

NVIDIA’s Blackwell AI chips have reportedly hit a snag and may arrive months late

stp2y0 CommentsNews, , ,
NVIDIA has discovered “design flaws” in its upcoming series of AI chips that may push their release back at least three months, reports. The company has reportedly started notifying customers of the delay, including Microsoft. Large orders of the new Blackwell chips were initially slated to start shipping sometime this year, but sources told The Information that they’re now not expected until early 2025. In addition to Microsoft, the publication reports that Google, Meta and other major companies have placed bulk orders of the Blackwell chips that are collectively worth “tens of billions of dollars.”NVIDIA back in March, touting performance…

Apple, NVIDIA and Anthropic reportedly used YouTube transcripts without permission to train AI models

stp2y0 CommentsNews, , , , , , , , ,
Some of the world’s largest tech companies trained their AI models on a dataset that included transcripts of more than 173,000 YouTube videos without permission, a new investigation from Proof News has found. The dataset, which was created by a nonprofit company called EleutherAI, contains transcripts of YouTube videos from more than 48,000 channels and was used by Apple, NVIDIA and Anthropic among other companies. The findings of the investigation spotlight AI’s uncomfortable truth: the technology is largely built on the backs of data siphoned from creators without their consent or compensation.The dataset doesn’t include any videos or images from…
