Bfloat16 floating-point format

Bfloat16 is a type of number that computers use to store and calculate with. It is a kind of shorthand for 'binary floating point 16'. Bfloat16 is a type of number that can store more complicated numbers than regular binary numbers. These numbers have more digits that make them more accurate for calculations. Bfloat16 is used for things like graphics, machine learning, and physics simulations. This type of number helps computers do their calculations faster and more accurately.
