Intel, Ampere show LLMs on CPUs isn't as crazy as it sounds
Briefly

Running LLM models on CPU cores is becoming more feasible due to software optimizations and hardware improvements, reducing the latency penalty associated with CPU-only AI.
Intel and Ampere are showcasing advancements in running larger LLM models on their CPU platforms, with Intel's Xeon processor achieving significant performance gains compared to previous generations.
Inference performance for AI models is measured in terms of milliseconds of latency or tokens per second, with recent benchmarks showing notable improvements in CPU performance for AI tasks.
Oracle demonstrated efficient throughput on Ampere's Altra CPUs for running AI models, indicating that CPUs from Intel and Ampere are increasingly viable options for AI workloads.
