The silicon race is heating up amid the struggle to keep up with demand.
OpenAI, the company behind ChatGPT and Codex and the models those tools use, and Broadcom, an established silicon supplier, have announced a new chip, called Jalapeño, designed specifically for large language model inference in data centers.
The companies intend to deploy the chip at large data centers and claim this is just the first generation in a long-term project that will see chips refined over time.
