AMD announced the first MLPerf 5.1 Training submission that uses the Instinct MI350 Series GPUs. The submission covers both the MI355X and MI350X models and represents the first public benchmark of the Instinct MI350 Series for Artificial Intelligence training workloads. The release follows AMD’s earlier MLPerf 5.1 Inference results and extends the company’s public performance data into training scenarios.
The MLPerf 5.1 Training results highlight generational performance gains for the Instinct MI350 Series. According to the announcement, the benchmarks demonstrate clear progress in scalability, efficiency, and compute performance across several of today’s most demanding Artificial Intelligence training workloads. AMD also emphasized broad ecosystem participation in the submission, indicating that multiple software and system partners were involved in validating the training runs on the new hardware.
By publicizing these MLPerf 5.1 Training results, AMD positions the Instinct MI350 Series as a platform aimed at accelerating the development of next-generation generative Artificial Intelligence models. The company framed the results as evidence that the MI355X and MI350X deliver the compute and efficiency characteristics needed for large-scale training. Overall, the submission serves both as a milestone for the Instinct MI350 Series and as a continuation of AMD’s benchmarking efforts across inference and training workloads.
