The D-series supports models containing up to 300 billion parameters

At the recent Open Compute Project Global Summit, Intel unveiled a graphics processor with up to 480GB of memory, an unusually large capacity designed for demanding AI inference workloads.

The GPU, called Intel GPU D-series and previously known by its Crescent Island codename…
