As the sizes of AI models and datasets continue to increase, relying only on higher-precision BF16 training is no longer sufficient. Key challenges such as training throughput expectations, memory limits, and rising costs are becoming the primary barriers to scaling transformer models. Using lower-precision training can address these challenges. By reducing the numeric precision used during…
