Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Consider a scenario where an AI model cannot fit into the memory of a single device. Explain how model parallelism would address this and provide an example.

💡 Hint: Think about distributing parts of the work to fit within memory constraints.

Challenge 2 Hard

Analyze a case where data parallelism could significantly reduce training time for a deep learning model. What factors would contribute to this improvement?

💡 Hint: Consider how speed increases as tasks are divided and executed simultaneously.
