masterofsome··on Transformers on Chips
Isn't this kinda pigeonholing yourself to one neural network architecture? Are we sure that transformers will take us to the promised land? Chip design is a pretty expensive and time consuming process, so if a new architecture comes out that is sufficiently different from the current transformer model wouldn't they have to design a completely new chip? The compute unit design is probably similar from architecture to architecture, so maybe I am misunderstanding...
