(PR) IBM Announces Telum II Processor and Spyre Accelerator for Next-Gen Mainframes
IBM (NYSE: IBM) revealed architecture details for the upcoming IBM Telum II Processor and IBM Spyre Accelerator at Hot Chips 2024. The new technologies are designed to significantly scale processing capacity across next generation IBM Z mainframe systems helping accelerate the use of traditional AI models and Large Language AI models in tandem through a new ensemble method of AI.
With many generative AI projects leveraging Large Language Models (LLMs) moving from proof-of-concept to production, the demands for power-efficient, secured and scalable solutions have emerged as key priorities. Morgan Stanley research published in August projects generative AI's power demands will skyrocket 75% annually over the next several years, putting it on track to consume as much energy in 2026 as Spain did in 2022. Many IBM clients indicate architectural decisions to support appropriately sized foundation models and hybrid-by-design approaches for AI workloads are increasingly important. Read full story
