Fresh silicon won't curb Zuck's appetite for GPUs just yet
After teasing its second-gen AI accelerator in February, Meta is ready to spill the beans on this homegrown silicon, which is already said to be powering ad recommendations in 16 regions.
Digging into the design, the accelerator features an 8x8 grid of processing elements which together offer a 3.5x higher dense compute performance or 7x higher performance with sparsity enabled compared to MTIA v1. It should be noted that the MTIA v2 won't eliminate the web goliath's need for GPUs. Meta supremo Mark Zuckerberg has previously said his mega-corporationInstead, MTIA follows an increasingly familiar pattern for Meta of developing custom silicon tailored to specific tasks. The idea being that while the kit may not be as flexible as CPUs and GPUs, an ASIC when deployed at scale can be more efficient.
The chips are also designed to scale out as needed and can be be deployed in a rack-based system containing 72 accelerators in total: Each system combines three chassis each containing 12 compute boards with two MTIA v2 chips per board.
