VIDRAFT Trains a Language Model from Scratch on NPUs — No GPUs Required
VIDRAFT Trains a Language Model from Scratch on NPUs — No GPUs Required TL;DR: Korean Pre-AGI startup VIDRAFT has pre-trained a large language model using NPUs (Neural Processing Units) instead of GPUs, challenging the industry assumption that GPU clusters are the only viable path for LLM pre-training. This represents a notable infrastructure diversification signal for ML engineers exploring…
