ALCF AI Testbed: Groq Training Workshop

America/Chicago
Murali Emani (LCF), Venkatram Vishwanath (LCF)
Description

This virtual training workshop will introduce users to the GroqRack system deployed at the ALCF AI Testbed. This workshop targets researchers at universities, national labs, and industries working on open science. 

The training session will introduce users to the architecture and the software stack. It will provide hands-on training to get started on the GroqRack in the ALCF AI testbed. The event will be virtual and the sessions will be recorded and made available. 

NOTE: The deadline for signing up for a new ALCF account to participate in the hands-on session has passed but you can register to attend the session. 

Day 1 will focus on GroqRack hardware and software architecture, GroqFlow and running models on this system at the ALCF AI Testbed.

Day 2 will focus on a deep dive into large language models, the MLAgility tool, a hands-on session, and best practices.
