Key Points

1SparseCore speeds irregular access
2FP4 doubles MXU throughput
3Virgo Network 4x DCN bandwidth
4TPUDirect faster data access

Google Cloud announced TPU 8t, optimized for pre-training with SparseCore, FP4, and 4x faster Virgo Network. Supports 9,600-chip superpods for world models like Genie 3. AI devs can train at massive scale more efficiently.
