About the Lab
Our mission
Pushing the frontier of inference efficiency
The performance of AI technologies relies on the full system, from accelerators to memory, interconnects, cooling and software. Validating novel AI technologies within a full system context is extremely important but presents a formidable challenge. Startups must choose between partnering with a larger organisation and forfeiting significant business leverage, or building the entire system themselves, an approach that is prohibitively expensive and demands expertise outside of their core focus. The Scaling Inference Lab solves this problem by providing a neutral platform where new AI components will be validated.
The Lab will deliver to the UK
Physical build of experimental AI clusters on a 6-month cadence
A functional simulator toolkit to identify architectural bottlenecks and forecast real-world performance
A strategic blueprint for Government and investors, including benchmarks and data-driven insights to guide infrastructure procurement
