Together offers 50% cheaper preemptible GPU compute for AI tasks

Together has launched a new preemptible compute offering for its GPU clusters, available in public preview. This service utilizes the same Nvidia GPU infrastructure as their on-demand options but is priced at 50% of the on-demand cost. It is designed for tasks such as evaluations, fine-tuning, batch inference, and short experiments, with a grace period of up to five minutes for checkpointing before compute resources are reclaimed. AI

IMPACT Provides a more cost-effective option for AI training and inference tasks, potentially lowering the barrier to entry for experimentation.
