Evidence
Intel Gaudi 3 AI Accelerator white paper (Intel document 817486), product-comparison table: "BF16 MME TFLOPS 1678" for Gaudi 3. The same paper's MME-precision table lists BF16 and FP8 at 1678 TFLOPS and "FP16 (signed)" at 459 TFLOPS — so this row is the BF16 matrix figure. 128 GB HBM2e. Not an FP16=BF16 part in the NVIDIA/AMD sense; the difference is disclosed here rather than hidden.
