Last year they were called cuda core. Now they are called AI Tops... wtf is an ai top... did we all become bottoms?

TOP is a measurement of performance (Trillions of Operations Per second), a CUDA core is not, it's a physical processing unit on the chip.

TOP is the AI version of a FLOP, the thing we typically use to measure graphics performance.

What I’m hearing is we use TOPS to measure bots
