jfc…
Looking at the spec’s… fucking hell these things probably cost over 100k.
I wonder if we’ll see a generational performance leap with LLM’s scaling to this much memory.
boonhetLLMs can already use way more I believe, they don’t really run them a single one of these things.
The HBM4 would likely be great for speed though.
