OpenAI Suspends Large-Scale Use of Google TPU Chips, NVIDIA and AMD Remain Core Suppliers
OpenAI recently announced that, despite initial testing, it will not adopt Google's TPU chips on a large scale. TPU (Tensor Processing Unit) is a custom ASIC chip developed by Google for machine learning tasks, designed to accelerate the training and inference of neural networks. TPU uses a dataflow-driven architecture, enabling efficient matrix multiplication pipeline computing and reducing memory access latency.
