3 days ago | cyclingweekly.com | Owen Rogers

Sunday’s Rapha Lincoln GP served up two, hard fought, highly entertaining races, with James McKay (Wheelbase-CabTech-Castelli) taking the honours in the men’s race, while newcomer, Lauren Dickson won the women’s equivalent for Handsling-Alba Development. Both races covered multiple laps of a 12.9km circuit, each closing with the steep, cobbled ascent of Michaelgate, before the finish line nestled between Lincoln’s castle and cathedral.
La nube, una opción viable ante el retorno incierto de la IA

1 month ago | datacenterdynamics.com | Owen Rogers

La IA generativa ha generado un aumento repentino de la demanda de clústeres de GPU a gran escala. Los modelos de IA requieren entrenamiento, lo cual se acelera enormemente con el uso de GPU. Estos clústeres procesan en paralelo numerosas funciones matemáticas dentro de las arquitecturas de software de redes neuronales que permiten a la IA generativa clasificar y predecir.
Cloud a viable choice amid uncertain AI returns

1 month ago | datacenterdynamics.com | Owen Rogers

Generative AI has created a surge in demand for large-scale clusters of GPUs. AI models need training, and this is vastly accelerated by using GPUs. These clusters parallel process many mathematical functions within the neural network software architectures that enable generative AI to classify and predict. However, clusters of this size are expensive and require customized data center infrastructure and highly skilled staff for installation and management.
Understanding AI deployment methods and locations

Jan 14, 2025 | datacenterdynamics.com | Owen Rogers

No technology has dominated recent headlines more than AI, most notably large language models (LLMs) such as ChatGPT. One of the critical enablers of LLMs is powerful clusters of GPUs, which can train AI models to classify and predict new content with a reasonable degree of accuracy. Training is the process by which an AI model learns how to respond correctly to users' queries. Inference is the process by which a trained AI model responds to users' queries.
Favero Assioma PRO MX-2 power pedals review: light, low and accurate

Sep 21, 2024 | cyclingweekly.com | Owen Rogers

If you train and race to power on the road, and want to do the same on gravel, the Assioma Pro-MX 2 pedals could fit the bill - and they’ll do it for a fraction of the cost of their competitors. Italian company Favero has been in the power meter market since 2015 and added these SPD-style PRO MX pedals to their range in February 2024.
Do the Lake MX333 shoes take gravel footwear comfort to a whole new level?

Jun 24, 2024 | cyclingweekly.com | Owen Rogers

While they are not to everyone’s taste style-wise, Lake shoes have been the go to shoe for the wide of foot for years. These MX333s are the company’s top off-road shoes, an evolution of the 332s and, like their predecessors, have a road version with the CX333 also released at the start of this year. I tested the CX332 road shoe as part of a three-way wide fit test a few years back and rated them very highly for performance and comfort. However, even then the 332s were looking dated.

Syncros Capital SL Aero wheels made me faster, on fewer watts

May 15, 2024 | cyclingweekly.com | Owen Rogers

The Syncros Capital SL Aero wheels, with their curious carbon monocoque design, are at the cutting edge of road bike wheel development, a superlight solution for riders prepared to invest heavily in their quest for speed. They’re a distant descendant of Syncros’s Silverton mtb wheels, the Scott-owned brand’s first one-piece carbon-fibre wheelset launched back in 2018.
Giant Defy Advanced SL0 is a smooth operator that goes the extra mile

Apr 26, 2024 | cyclingweekly.com | Owen Rogers

The endurance bike category is a long-established niche in the road bike sector, with rideability the key attribute for those of us who have finally accepted that we’re not going to make it to the WorldTour. Giant’s Defy, which has occupied a corner of this market for a decade, recently underwent a facelift, with the Taiwanese brand creating a bike, ‘specifically engineered for endurance road riding, delivering a smooth and efficient ride quality that minimises fatigue on long rides’.
