[[{“value”:”Training frontier models isn’t as simple as adding more GPUs—one small problem and the whole coordinated dance falls apart. OpenAI’s Mark Handley and Greg Steinbrecher discuss how a new supercomputer network design, used to train some of the company’s latest models, keeps the whole system moving in lockstep, even with record numbers of GPUs.
They break down Multipath Reliable Connection, a new protocol OpenAI developed with AMD, Broadcom, Intel, Microsoft, and Nvidia, and why they’re making it available for the whole industry to use.
