To overcome CPU and GPU limitations, hardware accelerators have been designed specifically for AI inference workloads, enabling highly efficient and optimized processing while minimizing energy consumption.
The AI industry encompasses a dynamic environment influenced by technological advancements, societal needs and regulatory considerations. Technological progress in machine learning, natural-language processing and computer vision has accelerated AI’s development and adoption. Societal demands for automation, personalization and efficiency across various sectors, including healthcare, finance and manufacturing, have further propelled the integration of AI technologies. Additionally, the evolving regulatory landscape emphasizes the importance of ethical AI deployment, data privacy and algorithmic transparency, guiding the responsible development and application of AI systems.
The AI industry combines both training and inference processes to create and deploy AI solutions effectively. Both AI inference and AI training are integral components of the overall AI lifecycle, and their significance depends on the specific context and application. While AI training is crucial for developing and fine-tuning models by learning patterns and extracting insights from data, AI inference plays a vital role in utilizing these trained models to make real-time predictions and decisions. The growing importance of AI inference—more than 80% of AI tasks today—lies in its pivotal role in driving data-driven decision-making, personalized user experiences and operational efficiency across diverse industries.
