Instead of buying Nvidia accelerators
OpenAI, known for its generative AI ChatGPT, may create its own accelerators for training artificial intelligence.
Will ChatGPT get its own computing accelerators?
Similar discussions within the company began last year amid a shortage of high-performance Nvidia chips. One option to solve the problem is to create your own chips. But this is not the only option the company is considering. Another is closer cooperation with companies developing such chips, including Nvidia. Simply put, OpenAI may consider purchasing semi-custom solutions.
At the moment, the company has not yet made a decision, that is, if OpenAI decides to develop its own chips, serial products will not appear soon. True, OpneAI can buy some company that already has the necessary developments, although it still takes a lot of time to create a finished product.
