Ngokombiko we-SemiAnalysis oputshukele ngaphandle, kunamahlebezi emakethe athi i-Google isebenzisana ne-AMD ekuthuthukiseni iphrojekthi ye-TPU yesizukulwane seshumi. Lokhu kungase kube iphrojekthi yokuqala ye-ASIC ye-AI eyenziwe ngokwezifiso ethathwe yi-AMD.
Umbiko uthi i-AMD inamakhono aqinile okupakisha okuthuthukile kanye nohlu olubanzi lwe-SoC IP. I-Google namakhasimende ayo basebenzela ukuthuthukisa i-SoC ehlanganisa i-TPU ne-CPU ngaphakathi kwephakeji elilodwa, ukuze ibhekane nezidingo zemithwalo yomsebenzi yokufunda okuqinisiwe. I-CPU IP ye-AMD nayo ingaba yinto ebalulekile eheha i-Google kulokhu kubambisana.
Ama-ASIC e-AI akhelwe ngaphakathi e-Google asesukile ku-chip eyodwa aba uchungechunge lwemikhiqizo ehlukahlukene, kanti ozakwethu bayo ekwakhiweni kwama-chip bahlanganisa i-Broadcom, i-MediaTek nabanye.
