Nvidia finally has some AI competition as Huawei shows off data center supercomputer that is better "on all metrics"

Huawei is flexing its networking muscles with its newly unveiled CloudMatrix 384 supercomputer, and it looks like Nvidia could be in trouble.

With, I think, a massive grain of salt since this info is unverified and direct from the manufacturer…

Huawei’s official presentation claims their Cloudmatrix 385 supercomputer delivers 300 PFLOPS of computing power, 269 TB/s of network bandwidth, and 1,229 TB/s of total memory bandwidth. It also achieves 55 percent model fitting utilization (MFU) during training workloads and offers 2.8 Tbps of inter-card bandwidth, heavily emphasizing its strength in networking.

| Spec            | NVL72 (Nvidia) | CloudMatrix 384 (Huawei) | Better? (%) |
|-----------------|----------------|--------------------------|------------|
| Total compute   | 180 Pflops     | 300 Pflops               | 67%        |
| Total network bw| 130 TB/s       | 269 TB/s                 | 107%       |
| Total mem bw    | 576 TB/s       | 1,229 TB/s               | 113%       |

    I guess it is useful for the US’ love for avoiding the units everyone lese is using that they have a unit that represents a lifetime worth of flops, the Trump?
