The automaker in 2019 started producing cars with its custom AI chips that help on-board software make decisions in response to what’s happening on the road.\nBaidu last month launched an AI chip that’s designed to help devices process huge amounts of data and boost computing power. Baidu saidthe “Kunlun 2” chipcan be used in areas such as autonomous driving and that it has entered mass production.\nSome of the tech giants have chosen to keep certain semiconductor projects under wraps.\nGoogle isreportedly edging closerto rolling out its own central processing units, or CPUs, for its Chromebook laptops. The search giant plans to use its CPUs in Chromebooks and tablets that run on the company’s Chrome operating system from around 2023, according toa reportfrom Nikkei Asia on Sep. 1. Google did not immediately respond to a CNBC request for comment.\nAmazon, which operates the world’s largest cloud service, isdeveloping its own networking chipto power hardware switches that move data around networks. If it works, it would reduce Amazon’s reliance on Broadcom. Amazon, which already designs a number of other chips, did not immediately respond to a CNBC request for comment.\nFacebook’s chief AI scientisttold Bloombergin 2019 that the company is working on a new class of semiconductor that would work “very differently” than most of the existing designs. Facebook did not immediately respond to a CNBC request for comment.\nDesigning but not manufacturing\nAt this stage, none of the tech giants are looking to do all the chip development themselves.\n“It is all about the design and performance of the chip,” Shaw said. “At this stage, it is not about the manufacturing and foundries, which is very costly.”\nSetting up an advanced chip factory, or foundry, likeTSMC’s in Taiwan, costs around $10 billion and takes several years.\n“Even Google and Apple are reticent to build these,” O’Donnell said. “They’ll go to TSMC or evenIntelto build their chips.”\nO’Donnell said there’s a shortage of people in Silicon Valley with the skills required to design high end-processors. “Silicon Valley put so much emphasis on software over the past few decades that hardware engineering was seen as a bit of an anachronism,” he said.\n“It became ‘uncool’ to do hardware,” O’Donnell said. “Despite its name, Silicon Valley now employs relatively few real silicon engineers.”","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":104,"commentLimit":10,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"symbols":[],"verified":2,"subType":0,"readableState":1,"langContent":"CN","currentLanguage":"CN","warmUpFlag":false,"orderFlag":false,"shareable":true,"causeOfNotShareable":"","featuresForAnalytics":[],"commentAndTweetFlag":false,"upFlag":false,"length":4,"xxTargetLangEnum":"ZH_CN"},"commentList":[],"isCommentEnd":true,"isTiger":false,"isWeiXinMini":false,"url":"/m/post/817699754"}
