FP8 is All You Need (Part 1): Debunking Hardware FP64 as the HPC Holy Grail
A research paper challenges the long-held belief that native FP64 (double-precision) hardware is essential for scientific computing, arguing that FP8 tensor operations combined with advanced mathematical schemes can achieve equivalent accuracy at dramatically higher speeds on modern GPUs like NVIDIA's Blackwell B300.
