What happened: Amazon said its TorchNeuron software lets developers run PyTorch code on its Trainium AI chips with a single configuration change and no rewriting, per its Annapurna Labs chip unit.
Why it matters: The tool challenges Nvidia, which has spent more than a decade on its Cuda software for running PyTorch code on its chips. Amazon said switching to its chips can result in steep cost savings, and other cloud players such as Google are also working to lure developers from Nvidia with better PyTorch tools.
