A SemiAnalysis report says Meta’s custom AMD MI400-series chip will be about half the size of a normal MI455X chip.
- The chip is reportedly optimized for recommender workloads and cost per memory bandwidth.
- Meta is said to use about 144GB of HBM instead of 432GB.
- The post is a reaction to that hardware-specific design choice, which points to Meta’s continuing push toward custom inference hardware.
