Is There A Place For Cpus In The Genai World?

OpenAI’s CEO, Sam Altman, recently highlighted the current GPU shortage and raised the question of whether CPUs are being overlooked in generative AI use cases. GPUs are well-suited for deep learning and reinforcement learning applications due to their ability to divide large tasks into smaller ones and execute them in parallel. LLMs, such as GPT-3 and GPT-4, require vast dataset processing at high speeds, which GPUs can provide. OpenAI’s ChatGPT has gained immense popularity due to its ability to produce human-like conversations.
