  • How much compute does a typical Google data center have? Where would it fall on the supercomputer rankings?
  • The top computer on the TOP500 list currently does 500kTflops/second.
  • GPT3 required 102310^{23} flops to train.
  • A Tesla p100 is 5Tflops per second
  • 45 TFlops per TPU times 200k would be 9 million TFLOPs
