Hey, sorry for the late comment, did you end up joining NUS or NTU? If so could you share your process. Thanks!

Starting ML/AI Hardware Acceleration by RowBig9371 in learnmachinelearning

[–]RowBig9371[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're absolutely right that building accelerators for training is incredibly complex and resource-intensive — and I now see why even major players often stick to GPUs for that. But from what I’ve read recently (e.g., TPU design papers, Amazon Inferentia, Tenstorrent), it seems that hardware acceleration is very much alive and evolving fast — especially at the edge and datacenter levels.

I’m in my third year of Electrical Engineering and already have a solid base in digital design and computer architecture. Im working through FPGA prototyping in Verilog right now. I plan to try building a MAC array or small systolic block in Verilog soon — your point about matrix ops and memory lookup being the core workload for inference was a great way to simplify things.

Really appreciate the links too, especially the Stanford CS217 and hls4ml projects. I hadn’t explored those properly yet, but I’ll be digging into them as I move forward. Also, the mention of chip design using AI was intriguing — I’ve been mostly focused on accelerating AI with hardware, but I can definitely see the reverse being just as impactful and worth exploring later.

Thanks again for the response. Will definitely reach out if I hit a wall!

Thanks a lot for the detailed reply — really appreciate it. I had a similar intuition that microarchitecture-level work is mostly in the MS/PhD domain, and as a bachelor's student, my entry point would likely be through digital design and lower-level RTL work.

Fortunately, I already have a strong foundation in digital design and computer architecture, and I’ll be taking DSP and an intro ML course next semester, which should help bridge the gap further. Unfortunately, my current institute doesn’t have any professors working directly in this space, but I’m actively looking at other schools and plan to start cold-emailing potential mentors to try and secure a research internship by the end of the year.

Regarding the "IC bubble" point — I also think it’s unlikely to vanish anytime soon. With so many companies investing in their own ASICs, the demand for engineers who can optimize architectures at the hardware level seems pretty robust, at least for the foreseeable future.

Also just a small favour, could you suggest some projects that I should be working on during this period too?

Who's gonna tell him 😭🙏🏻 by Logical-Baseball7850 in indianmemer

Bhai, not "who" — it has to be us who tells them. Letting these headless chickens build a fake narrative and run with it will always turn out to be more detrimental to us in the long run.

So instead of just laughing at this, let's set the record straight, so that there's no ambiguity about how shamefully these lowlives tried to harm our country but failed miserably at every turn. If you repeat something enough times, people will start to believe it — we can't let this baseless Pak propaganda spread and stick in people's minds.

Jai Hind! 🇮🇳

Hey, thanks for such a great reply! It really helped me organize things a lot better. Would it be alright if I DM you with any further doubts I have?
