Evolving Comms Libraries in ROCm for Future AI Workloads
AMD· 2026-08-14 12:22
Good evening, everyone, and thank you for joining us this late in the day. So both me and Maria, as were introduced, are focused on how the collective space is evolving. And we'll share some of those insights and also what we are adding into ROCm Comms library space.If you look back a few years, AI training was simple. Your model would fit into a GPU. You have a large amount of data that you would chunk and feed it across several GPUs.Periodically, you had to sync the gradients. And that meant that all redu ...
Accelerating LLM Inference on AMD ROCm with AITER and ATOM
AMD· 2026-08-14 12:22
For the next about 20 minutes, I'll talk about our inferencing framework called ATOM. And what's behind that is a collection of the kernels, which is called AITER. I think earlier today, when you hear about the keynote speech, you might realize that AMD has delivered a lot of the very good hardware.But to light up those GPUs, we actually need a very mature and sophisticated software stacks to make sure that we could leverage whatever that they offer by our hardware. So that's exactly what I'm going to prese ...
Transforming Ethernet from Underdog to Champion for AI Inference
AMD· 2026-08-14 12:22
Modern AI inference is increasingly constrained by KV cache movement across prefill, decode, and storage tiers rather than GPU compute. This session demonstrates how a lightweight software layer enables RDMA-class performance on standard Ethernet networks without application changes, supporting high-performance disaggregated vLLM inference. Live benchmarks highlight improvements in time-to-first-token (TTFT) and inter-token latency (ITL). Discover more: https://www.amd.com/en/corporate/events/advancing-ai/s ...
Efficient General Intelligence - When Novel Models Meet Customized Silicons
AMD· 2026-08-14 12:21
All right, good morning. Glad to be here. It's great to see that this AMD event is so well attended.So I'll be talking about a topic a lot of us are very, very interested in, on Efficient General Intelligence. I want to emphasize on the efficiency part. The reason is that there's a lot of exciting progress on kind of how much of an intelligence we can get with the latest frontier models we have.However, we have to say that if you look at the efficiency, there's a huge gap. For example, if you take some rece ...
