Frequently asked questions

Machine learning vs. AI? What are the differences?

The classic definition of artificial intelligence is the science and engineering of making intelligent machines. Machine learning is a subfield or branch of AI that involves complex algorithms, such as neural networks, decision trees and large language models (LLMs) with structured and unstructured data to determine outcomes. Classifications or predictions based on certain input criteria are made based upon these algorithms. Examples of machine learning are recommendation engines, facial recognition systems and autonomous vehicles.

What memory is best for AI workloads?

When it comes to AI workloads, memory plays a crucial role in determining the overall performance of the system. Two prominent types of memory that are often considered for AI workloads are high-bandwidth memory (HBM) and double data rate (DDR) memory, specifically DDR5. Which memory is right for an AI workload depends on various factors, including the specific requirements of the AI algorithms, the scale of data processing and the overall system configuration. Both HBM3 Gen2 and DDR5 offer significant advantages, and their suitability depends on the specific use case, budget and available hardware options. Micron offers the latest generation of HBM3 Gen2 and DDR5.

HBM3 Gen2 memory is the highest end solution in terms of bandwidth, speed and energy efficiency1 due to its advanced architecture and high-bandwidth capabilities. DDR5 memory modules are generally more mainstream and cost-effective at scale than HBM solutions.

What storage is best for AI workloads?

For AI workloads, the ideal storage solution depends on several factors. Key considerations should include speed, performance, capacity, reliability, endurance and scalability. The best storage solution for AI workloads depends on the specific demands of your applications, your budget and your overall system configuration. Micron can offer the best-in-class NVMe SSDs for your specific needs. The Micron 9400 NVMe SSD sets a new performance benchmark for PCIe® Gen4 storage. It packs in up to 30TB of capacity and is designed for critical workloads like AI training, high-frequency trading, and database acceleration. The Micron 6500 ION NVMe SSD is the ideal high-capacity solution for networked data lakes.
