OpenAI places faith in its proprietary AI processors by 2026

OpenAI is planning to create its own AI processors, aiming to gain a competitive advantage, as reported by Reuters. The collaboration with TSMC and Broadcom will allow for the development of these processors, eliminating the need for OpenAI to establish its own manufacturing facilities.

If everything goes as anticipated, the initial processors could be operational by 2026.

During the interim period while awaiting the arrival of its custom processors, OpenAI has opted to procure processors from AMD for training its AI algorithms. The current usage of Nvidia processors for this purpose has led to a significant price increase due to high demand.
