MLPerf Benchmarks: The Secret Behind Successful AI

Even though they have been around for years, the phrase "MLPerf benchmarks" holds little meaning to most people outside of the AI developer community. However, this community-driven benchmark suite, which measures performance of a broad range of machine learning (ML) tasks, is quickly becoming the gold standard for the fair and unbiased assessment of accelerated computing solutions for machine learning training, inference, and high performance computing (HPC). The era of MLPerf is here, and everyone should be paying attention. Organizations across every industry are racing to take advantage of AI and machine learning to improve their businesses. According to Karl Freund, founder and principal analyst at Cambrian AI Research, businesses should expect that customer demand for AI-accelerated outcomes will continue to grow.
