Called Kompact AI, the technology is aimed at bringing AI training and inference to SMEs which cannot afford GPUs.
“Anything that can be computed on a GPU can also be calculated on a CPU; what really matters is that we are able to offer 3x more quantitative performance than current systems without compromising model quality or accuracy,” says Ziroh co-founder Hrishikesh Dewan.
On its site Ziroh lists ‘Models already CPU-fied’ and ‘Models on the way’.
Ziroh developed the techology in collaboration with the Indian Institute of Technology Madras (IIT Madras) and IIT-M Pravartak Technologies Foundation.
