OpenAI Sam Altman, CEOSam Altman) was recently revealed to be launching an ambitious AI ChipsThe plan plans to raise $7 trillion (currently about 50.47 trillion yuan), and later tweeted that it would increase to $8 trillion to build a series of wafer fabs to produce a wealth of chips for global artificial intelligence applications.
Since Altman's plan was exposed, it has quickly become a hot topic of discussion in the semiconductor industry."Silicon Guru" Jim Keller recently expressed his opinion that if he were to push forward, the cost could be less than US$1 trillion (currently about RMB 7.21 trillion).
The "Silicon Sage" admitted that there would be many challenges in promoting and achieving this goal, including improving the supply chain, integrating software and hardware resources, etc., which would require a lot of manpower, material and financial resources, and could not be achieved overnight.
Tenstorrent, led by the "Silicon Sage", is also rapidly improving existing AI-based chip architectures. The company recently announced a partnership with Samsung Foundry to develop the next-generation RISC-V-based chip, which will use Samsung's SF4X process.
