Jim Keller Challenges Altman’s $7T AI Chip Plan with Bold $1T Alternative
Renowned chip architect Jim Keller disagrees with OpenAI CEO Sam Altman's plan to raise $7 trillion for AI chips. Keller and Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang argue for improving processor sophistication instead of increasing quantity. They believe focusing on quality will drive cost efficiencies and improve overall performance. This approach aligns with Tenstorrent's roadmap for developing advanced processors. The market is expected to shift towards improving processor architecture, leading to innovation and efficiency in AI hardware. This will reduce costs and increase performance to meet the growing demand for AI chips.
