AMD收购AI软件公司Mipsology
以帮助他们在FPGA上的人工智能软件工作。今天AMD宣布了另一项引人注目的人工智能软件收购:开源人工智能软件供应商Nod.AI。
AMD收购Nod.ai是为了在开源人工智能软件功能方面获得更多经验。Nod.ai团队将帮助AMD Instinct、Ryzen、EPYC和Versal产品系列的人工智能软件工作。
Nod.ai是建立在LLVM、MLIR和IREE之上的SHARK机器学习分发背后的公司。自2013年以来,Nod.ai一直致力于实现从手机到超大规模部署的人工智能。
“Nod.ai为顶级超大型企业、企业和初创公司提供优化的人工智能解决方案。Nod.ai的SHARK软件基于编译器的自动化软件功能减少了手动优化的需要,也减少了部署高性能人工智能模型以在AMD CDNA支持的广泛数据中心、边缘和客户端平台上运行所需的时间™, XDNA™, RDNA™ 和“禅宗”架构。“
收购Nod.ai尤其有助于在至关重要的LLVM和MLIR编译器基础设施方面培养更多的开发人才。

The hardware execution at AMD has been firing on all cylinders the past few years while it's on the software ecosystem side where they have more ground to cover for competing with NVIDIA CUDA as well as Intel's robust oneAPI offerings. Fortunately the situation seems to be changing with AMD committing more resources to ROCm, these recent AMD software acquisitions, and their continued investments into open-source drivers and related Linux infrastructure. Hopefully all of the AMD AI software (and ROCm improvements) will begin bearing fruits as we move into 2024.
