The race to build a distributed GPU runtime

For a decade, GPUs have delivered breathtaking data processing speedups. However, data is growing far beyond the capacity of a single GPU server. When your work drifts beyond GPU local memory or VRAM (e.g., HBM and GDDR), hidden costs of inefficiencies show up: spilling to host, shuffling over networks, and idling accelerators.

A new research paper from OpenAI asks why large language models like GPT-5 and chatbots like ChatGPT still hallucinate, and whether anything can be done to reduce those hallucinations. In a blog post summarizing the paper, OpenAI defines hallucinations as “plausible but false statements generated by language models,” and it acknowledges that despite improvements, hallucinations “remain a fundamental challenge for all large language models” — one that will never be completely eliminated.
