San Francisco, October 06: OpenAI, the maker of Artificial Intelligence chatbot ChatGPT, is looking to develop its own AI chips and has even considered acquiring another company for this purpose, a media report said on Friday. OpenAI has been discussing various options to address the shortage of expensive AI chips it relies on, but no final decision has been made, according to Reuters, citing sources. These options have included developing its own AI chip, collaborating more closely with other chip makers, including Nvidia and also diversifying its suppliers beyond Nvidia.
OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, who has made acquiring more AI processors a primary priority for the company, is one of the main driving forces behind this decision. He has raised concerns about the restricted availability and expensive costs of the hardware required to power OpenAI's software, the report said. OpenAI has been developing its generative AI capabilities on a Microsoft-built supercomputer that employs thousands of Nvidia GPUs.슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Instagram New Feature Update: Meta-Owned Platform Tests Ability To Share Stories To Multiple Close Groups and Audience Lists.
The cost of running ChatGPT is prohibitively high for the company. According to an analysis from Bernstein analyst Stacy Rasgon, each enquiry costs about 4 US cents. If ChatGPT queries grew to a tenth the size of Google searches, it would require about $48.1 billion in GPUs initially and around $16 billion in chips per year to remain functioning.슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Elon Musk Plans For Mars: Unmanned Test Landing Possible on Red Planet in Next Four Years, Says SpaceX CEO.
