PS3 PS3 for AI/ML

[havenoenterkey2]

I was wondering how feasible it would be to try and use ps3 for creating some AI models? With otheros++ would it be also possible to connect several ps3 into a cluster? And how fast would that be in comparison to modern gpus and cpus. Asking since it's an idea for a school project

Possible. However PS3 is ancient tech, I doubt seven 1GHz SPUs could be more efficient than any current one CPU/GPU, even in large cluster.

But if You will decide to make some cool project, try T2 Linux.

Thanks a lot. I also saw that T2 had some barebones drivers for RSX
as well so I'll look into it
