Bf16

In the land of numbers, there's a format quite splendid, It's called bfloat16, a format so intended, To make machine learning faster, oh what a delight, With its floating radix point, it shines so bright! In just 16 bits, it holds a wide range, Of numeric values, it's truly quite strange, With 8 exponent bits, it keeps the range wide, But only 8 bits of precision, by its side. For machine learning, it's the perfect mate, Reducing storage needs, increasing speed, oh how great! Developed by Google Brain, a clever bunch, They made bfloat16 to give algorithms a punch. It's used in CPUs, GPUs, and AI processors too, Intel, AMD, NVIDIA, they all knew, The power of bfloat16, they embraced with glee, In their Xeon processors, GPUs, and more, you see. Libraries like PyTorch and TensorFlow, they're in the know, Supporting bfloat16, they help it grow, With CUDA and Math Kernel Library, it's a breeze, To work with bfloat16 and perform with ease. So let's celebrate bfloat16, this format so grand, In the world of numbers, it takes a firm stand, With its wide range and speed, it's a true winner, Bfloat16, the whimsical format, what a splendor!
