OpenAI 推出首款自研 AI 芯片 Jalapeño,专为 LLM 推理从零设计。从初始设计到流片仅用 9 个月,ChatGPT 参与了芯片设计,堪称高性能先进半导体领域最快的 ASIC 开发周期。该芯片由 Broadcom 和 Celestica 代工,针对 ChatGPT、Codex、API 及未来 Agent 产品的实际负载优化。早期样片已在实验室达到目标频率和功耗,成功运行 GPT-5.3-Codex-Spark 等 ML 负载;性能功耗比显著优于当前 SOTA,详细基准后续公布。部署计划于 2026 年底启动,战略上旨在减少对外部 GPU 依赖,加强对算力经济的控制。
Absolutely insane:
"Jalapeño was co-developed from initial design to manufacturing tape-out in just nine months, and the custom AI accelerator program represents what we believe to be the fastest ASIC development cycle ever achieved in high-performance advanced semiconductors."
ChatGPT helped design the chip so they could reach 9 months of developement cycle
"If AI can help engineers design better chips faster, it can lower the cost of compute across the industry and help democratize access to advanced AI."
