知情人士称,OpenAI计划购买谷歌的人工智能芯片,以提升其算力。交易条款尚不清楚。

OpenAI plans to buy Google’s AI chips to boost its computing power, according to a person familiar with the matter. The deal terms are still unknown.

此举是OpenAI更广泛地快速构建人工智能基础设施努力的一部分。该公司还计划在2026年使用自研芯片,包括与博通合作制造的Jalapeno芯片。

The move is part of OpenAI’s wider push to build AI infrastructure fast. It also plans to use its own chips in 2026, including Jalapeno chips made with Broadcom.

谷歌最初为搜索打造的TPU,如今已成为英伟达芯片的竞争对手。甲骨文也将在其云服务中提供TPU,谷歌称人工智能需要“多样化的计算能力”。

Google’s TPUs, first built for search, are now a rival to Nvidia’s chips. Oracle will also offer TPUs in its cloud, as Google says AI needs “a diverse range of compute”.

人工智能生成 旧金山——据一位知情人士透露,OpenAI打算从Alphabet旗下的谷歌购买人工智能计算芯片,这是这家ChatGPT开发商为构建其人工智能基础设施所做更广泛努力的一部分。

AI generated SAN FRANCISCO – OpenAI intends to buy artificial intelligence computing chips from Alphabet’s Google, according to a person familiar with the matter, part of broader efforts by the ChatGPT maker to build out its AI infrastructure.

这位因讨论属于私下进行而要求匿名的人士称,任何交易的最终条款尚不清楚。OpenAI和谷歌拒绝置评。

The final terms of any deal are not yet known, according to the person, who asked not to be identified because the discussions are private. OpenAI and Google declined to comment.

此举反映出OpenAI多管齐下、迅速增加更多人工智能处理能力的努力。

The move reflects OpenAI’s multi-pronged bid to quickly add more AI processing power.

该公司已经宣布,计划在2026年晚些时候开始使用自研芯片来支持其人工智能模型。

The company has already announced plans to start using its own chips to support its artificial intelligence models later in 2026.

它加入了一大批公司的行列,这些公司正致力于开发本土人工智能芯片,并挑战英伟达在该领域的主导地位。

It joins a stampede of companies working to develop home-grown AI chips and challenge Nvidia’s dominance in the field.

OpenAI与博通合作开发的自研Jalapeno芯片,是在谷歌老将的帮助下打造的。负责OpenAI内部芯片团队的Richard Ho此前曾参与谷歌半导体的开发——这种半导体被称为张量处理单元,即TPU。

OpenAI’s in-house Jalapeno chips, developed with Broadcom, were created with help from Google veterans. Richard Ho, who runs the OpenAI internal chip team, was previously involved in the development of Google’s semiconductors – known as tensor processing units, or TPUs.

谷歌在十多年前就开始研发其TPU。最初,这些处理器被用于加速该公司的网络搜索引擎并提高效率。

Google began working on its TPUs more than a decade ago. Initially, the processors were used to speed up the company’s web search engine and improve efficiency.

但这些芯片很快被证明在处理人工智能工作方面很有价值,并在近年来成为英伟达备受追捧的图形处理器的替代选择。

But the chips soon proved valuable for handling AI work and have emerged in recent years as an alternative to Nvidia’s prized graphics processing units.

甲骨文也在10月27日宣布,TPU将通过其云计算基础设施提供。

Oracle also announced on Oct 27 that TPUs would be available through its cloud-computing infrastructure.
