Beyond DRAM: How High Bandwidth Memory (HBM) Powers AI and HPC

High Bandwidth Memory (HBM) is transforming the way we power Artificial Intelligence (AI) and High-Performance Computing (HPC). In this episode, we explore how HBM’s 3D stacked architecture and ultra-wide data paths overcome the "memory wall," delivering massive bandwidth and efficiency far beyond conventional DRAM. We also unpack the manufacturing challenges—like thermal management and error patterns—while looking at the explosive growth of HBM in AI accelerators and what the roadmap to HBM4 and beyond means for the future of computing.
