FLOPS: The New AI Performance Benchmark 📊

About this video

You’ve probably heard people talk about FLOPS — but what does it actually mean?
In this video, I break down how Floating Point Operations Per Second (FLOPS) have become the new anchor for measuring computing power, especially in AI. We’ll compare FLOPS to old school benchmarks like MHz, cores, and RAM, and look at real-world examples from MacBooks, gaming rigs, data centres, and AI training clusters like GPT-4.

If you’re trying to understand the power behind AI models, cloud compute costs, or why hardware pricing is going through the roof — FLOPS is the number you need to know.
