GPU memory is the most expensive resource in production AI, and it's also the one running out fastest. Long context windows and multi-turn conversations force AI models to repeatedly recompute information they've already processed, consuming GPU memory and compute that could otherwise serve additional users or generate new responses.Instead of treating GPU memory as the limiting resource, why not extend it with much cheaper storage technologies? Weka, for one, believes that cheap flash storage can close that gap. The company's NeuralMesh 6 software platform, launching alongside its first self-designed hardware line, Wekapod 3, extends what Weka calls Augmented Memory Grid, an approach that aggregates NAND flash to behave like GPU memory at a fraction of the cost.This is an [...]
DeepSeek’s announcement over the weekend that it has made its 75% price cut permanent on its flagship V4 Pro model is a disruptive assault on the capital-heavy business models of Silicon Valley’s [...]
To quote an ancient Jedi Master "Begun, the AI price wars have!"OpenAI is sharply reducing the prices of two models in its GPT-5.6 frontier series, cutting GPT-5.6 Luna, the smallest and fas [...]
DeepSeek, the Chinese artificial intelligence research company that has repeatedly challenged assumptions about AI development costs, has released a new model that fundamentally reimagines how large l [...]
Even as the geopolitical conversation around AI continues to grow more fraught following the U.S. government's actions to limit the new models from Anthropic and OpenAI, Chinese open source darli [...]
