What is Groq AI?
Groq is a Silicon Valley AI company that built a custom chip called the LPU (Language Processing Unit) specifically designed for running large language models at extremely high speeds. Unlike GPUs (which run most AI today), Groq's LPU delivers deterministic, ultra-low-latency inference.
The result? Groq can run Llama 3 70B at over 500 tokens per second - making it the fastest publicly accessible AI inference platform in the world. Developers use Groq's API to build real-time AI applications where speed is critical.
