OpenAI is getting creative to deal with the industry’s imminent compute crunch. On Wednesday, the ChatGPT maker and a coalition of researchers from AMD, Broadcom, Intel, Microsoft, and Nvidia published a paper offering a rare look into company’s training stack, debuting a new compute networking protocol designed to make GPU clusters faster, more reliable and conserve precious compute cycles. The protocol, which has been in the works for two years, is instrumental in OpenAI scaling the compute that it needs to continue building bigger and better models, noting in a blog post that the networking approach accelerates its vision for Stargate, the company’s long-term effort to garner the compute it needs to build and scale cutting-edge AI.
