This is both HBM and SRAM. voice-verified

Talk a little bit about its design and architecture, but why that ultra-low latency matters. voice-verified

right? voice-verified

We're getting to why a frontier lab would look to a custom silicon program, the why. voice-verified

What is it that you can optimize for with Jalapeno or any custom ASIC or accelerator that you just can't with an NVIDIA-based system, for example? voice-verified

This is an inference chip. voice-verified

It is. voice-verified

So very simply, why focus on inference, not on the training side with your custom silicon program? voice-verified

How do you decide which workload goes to Jalapeno versus NVIDIA or Cerebras, for example? voice-verified

You have options, but how do you make that voice-verified

at a voice-verified

You know, lots of people struggle with the benchmarks. voice-verified
