These chips will help greatly accelerate AI adoption in all industries, Huawei said, adding that the company was ready to work with all stakeholders to turn AI into a practical reality, making it inclusive and available for every person, every home and every organisation, as reported by IANS.
“Huawei’s Artificial Intelligence (AI) strategy is to invest in basic research and talent development, build a full-stack, all-scenario AI portfolio, and foster an open global ecosystem,” Huawei Rotating Chairman Eric Xu said at the event.
Huawei’s full-stack portfolio includes chips, chip ‘enablement’, a training and inference framework, and application ‘enablement’.
The “all scenarios” refers to different deployment scenarios for AI, including public Clouds, private Clouds, Edge computing in all forms, industrial IoT (Internet of Things) devices, and consumer devices.
The Ascend series delivers excellent performance per watt in every scenario, whether it is minimum energy consumption or maximum computing power in data centres, Huawei said.
Their unified architecture also makes it easy to deploy, migrate, and interconnect AI applications across different scenarios.
