Celestial AI raises $100M to transfer data using light-based interconnects
Read more: Celestial AI raises $100M to transfer data using light-based interconnectsDavid Lazovsky and Preet Virk, technologists with backgrounds in semiconductor engineering and photonics, came to the joint realization several years ago that AI and machine learning workloads would quickly encounter a “data movement” problem. Increasingly, they predicted, it would become challenging to move data to and from compute hardware as AI models scaled past what…
