Slower alternative: "fastai with @pytorch on @awscloud is currently the fastest to train Imagenet on GPU, fastest on a single machine (faster than Intel-caffe on 64 machines!), and fastest on public infrastructure (faster than @TensorFlow on a TPU!) Big thanks to our students that helped with this." - https://twitter.com/jeremyphoward/status/988852083796291584

One machine with 8 V100 GPUs. If you consider one TPU pod a single machine the TPU is faster. Those numbers also show that 8 GPUs are slower than 8 TPUs (so same conclusion as the article)
