Introducing the Tenstorrent Model Zoo

Speaker:
Milan Kordic, Senior Machine Learning Engineer, Tenstorrent

Abstract:

Tenstorrent AI accelerator hardware is specially designed to accelerate artificial intelligence and machine learning applications, competing on a performance-per-dollar basis. For developers and engineers, having access to efficient AI computing power and an easy-to-use software API is critical for running large-scale and compute-intensive models such as BERT, GPT3, BART, ResNet50, and T5. In this workshop, we will introduce the Tenstorrent developer ecosystem including an overview of the hardware product line, the end-to-end software stack including BUDA, PyBUDA and Model Zoo, the stages of an AI model from pre-training, fine-tuning, evaluation and inference, and a hands-on demo of the Tenstorrent Model Zoo highlighting the key steps developers need to take to get their model running on Tenstorrent AI hardware.
