Hyderabad: The IIT Madras and IIT-M Pravartak Technologies Foundation partnered with Ziroh Labs, a California-based Innovation-driven Deep-Tech Startup, to establish a Centre of AI Research (COAIR). The COAIR will focus on developing practical, efficient AI solutions focusing on CPU and edge device inferencing.
Meanwhile, Ziroh Labs unveiled the first version of ‘Kompact AI’ at IIT Madras. Kompact AI is an AI platform that enables foundational models to be built and served using CPUs without requiring GPUs (Graphics Processing Units), which are expensive and hard to obtain.
The startup showcased Kompact AI’s unique capabilities during the event and demonstrated how it redefines AI development on top of CPUs by eliminating dependency on GPUs.
