Extropic 已流片 Z1 热力学芯片,以低于 1W 功耗运行 269,000 个概率位,宣称能效比 GPU 高 10,000 倍,现已进入制造阶段。同时发布 Torx 和 Thermalizers,即面向热力学硬件的 PyTorch 与内核库。Z1 将提供 0.5M pbit 条状和 4M pbit PCIe 卡两种规格。

Some incredible stuff is happening here.

Extropic has taped out Z1, a thermodynamic chip that runs 269,000 probabilistic bits on less than 1W of power.

Claims 10,000x better energy efficiency than GPUs from a chip now in fabrication.

And they also released its PyTorch equivalent for thermodynamic hardware.

Beff (e/acc)Major update from us @extropic Announcing Torx and Thermalizers, basically our version of PyTorch + kernels, but for Thermo hardware Also: Z1 is now taped out a...
