In a response to Reuters on July 1, OpenAI clarified that while the company is currently engaged in preliminary testing of Google TPUs, there are no immediate plans for widespread deployment. Previous reports suggested that OpenAI had initiated the rental of Google AI chips to augment its computational capabilities. Despite its heavy reliance on NVIDIA's AI GPUs for hardware, OpenAI is also diligently pursuing independent research and development efforts. The design of its inaugural self-developed AI chip is anticipated to be finalized within this year. This decision to rent Google TPUs signifies OpenAI's first significant utilization of non-NVIDIA chips, potentially paving the way for a more optimized operational cost structure.
