According to media reports, Microsoft is developing its own artificial intelligence chip.

According to people familiar with the matter, the AI ​​chip is codenamed "Athena". This chip will promote the development of artificial intelligence chat robot technology, just like ChatGPT launched by OpenAI.

It is said that Microsoft has been developing this chip since 2019. Some employees at Microsoft and OpenAI are testing the artificial intelligence chip.

Not to be outdone, Microsoft is developing its own AI chip

Microsoft's chip will be used to train large language models (LLM) and AI inference (inference), and the company hopes its performance can exceed that purchased from other suppliers. of chips.

Some other large technology companies such as Amazon and Google are also developing their own artificial intelligence chips, all with the goal of reducing costs.

Chip designer Nvidia dominates the artificial intelligence chip market. After the success of ChatGPT, Microsoft is accelerating the launch of such chips.

Microsoft released its own artificial intelligence search engine, Bing AI, earlier this year.

Nvidia says artificial intelligence can be used to improve chip design and find better ways to arrange large numbers of transistors. Samsung Electronics predicts that with the popularization of 5G wireless networks, AI, and self-driving cars, user demand for advanced chips will increase significantly.

In addition, a scientist stated in an article published in an official journal in February this year that chips are at the core of a "technological war" and he called on the public to dare to fight.
