With an aim to empower enterprise customers in India with innovative AI solutions, Intel has embarked on several collaborations and deployments announced during Intel Vision 2024.
Bharti Airtel aims to leverage its vast telecommunications data to enhance AI capabilities, thereby enriching customer experience and exploring new revenue streams in the digital domain.
Infosys announced a strategic partnership with Intel, integrating Intel technologies such as 4th and 5th generation Intel Xeon processors, Intel Gaudi 2 AI accelerators and Intel Core Ultra into Infosys Topaz. This collaboration aims to deliver AI-driven services, solutions and platforms to accelerate business value through generative AI technologies.
Ola Krutrim uses Intel Gaudi 2 clusters to pre-train and fine-tune its base models with generative capabilities in ten languages, achieving industry-leading price/performance ratios compared to existing solutions on the market. In addition, Krutrim is currently preparing a larger base model on an Intel Gaudi 2 cluster, improving its AI capabilities.
Meanwhile, Intel also announced its partnerships with Bosch, CtrlS, IBM, IFF, Landing AI, NAVER, NielsenIQ, Roboflow and Seekr.
Recently, ManageEngine, the enterprise IT arm of Zoho, confirmed that it would be a question of investing $10 million in NVIDIA, AMD and Intelaimed at providing generative AI offers to its customers.
Santhosh VishwanathanVice President and General Manager of Intel, job that the company collaborated with Zoho to leverage Intel® Xeon® processors and the OpenVINO™ toolkit to power its Video AI Assistant.
Following this development, Zoho is now collaborating with Intel to optimize and accelerate its video AI workloads for users. This will drive efficiency, reduce total cost of ownership (TCO) and optimize performance.
At Intel Vision 2024, Intel announced the release of its latest AI accelerator, the Intel Gaudi 3, intended to revolutionize AI systems. The Gaudi 3 has the capability to power AI systems with tens of thousands of accelerators interconnected via Ethernet, setting a new standard in AI processing.
The Intel Gaudi Accelerator 3 is expected to be available to OEMs, including Dell Technologies, HPE, Lenovo, and Supermicro, in the second quarter of 2024.
Intel has also partnered with Google Cloud, Thales and Cohesity to use Intel’s confidential computing capabilities in their cloud environments. This includes Intel Trust Domain Extensions (Intel TDX), Intel Software Guard Extensions (Intel® SGX), and Intel Attestation Service.
Users have the ability to run their AI models and algorithms in a secure execution environment called Trusted Execution Environment (TEE), while also benefiting from Intel’s trust services to autonomously validate the integrity of these TEEs.
Compared to the NVIDIA H100, the Intel Gaudi 3 is expected to speed up training time by 50% on average across different models, including the Llama 2 models with 7B and 13B settings, as well as the GPT-3 175B settings model. .
Additionally, the Gaudi 3 accelerator is expected to outperform the H100 by 50% on average in inference throughput and achieve a 40% increase in inference energy efficiency across different parameter models.
