I'm not an expert on the system architecture side of things. Maybe a Groqster who is can chime in. But the way I understand it is that you can't improve latency just by scaling, whereas you can improve throughput just by scaling, as long as it's acceptable to increase batch size. Increasing batch size is generally fine for training. It's a batch process! On the other hand, if someone comes up with a novel training process that is highly sequential then I'd expect Groq chips to do better than graphics processors in that scenario.
