OpenAI, a leading artificial intelligence research and deployment company, has clarified that it currently has no active plans for large-scale deployment of Google’s in-house Tensor Processing Units (TPUs) to power its products. This statement follows earlier reports suggesting that OpenAI might be turning to Google’s specialized AI chips to meet its escalating computational demands.
While a spokesperson for OpenAI confirmed that the company is conducting early-stage testing with some of Google’s TPUs, they emphasized that there are no immediate intentions for widespread integration into their core operations.
Currently, OpenAI primarily relies on Nvidia’s powerful graphics processing units (GPUs) and AMD’s AI chips to manage its rapidly growing computational needs for its advanced AI models. In parallel with its external chip usage, OpenAI is also actively developing its own proprietary chip, with the design anticipated to be finalized within the current year.
Despite the decision regarding TPUs, OpenAI has engaged with Google on another front, having signed up for Google Cloud services to address its broader computing capacity requirements. This indicates a nuanced relationship and a degree of collaboration between the two major players in the highly competitive artificial intelligence sector.
