Google expands 8th generation AI processor family with two new models
Google has introduced two new processor systems, TPU 8tx and TPU 8i Max, to strengthen its competitiveness in the AI chip market. With these new models, the company has launched a total of four different AI processor systems within a year.
Google announced that it has expanded its hardware infrastructure by adding the TPU 8tx and TPU 8i Max models to its 8th generation AI processor family.
According to the statement made by Amin Vahdat, Google's Senior Vice President and Chief Technologist for AI and Infrastructure, the number of AI processor systems the company has offered within a year has reached four with the newly introduced systems.
The TPU 8tx model is designed for the secure processing of sensitive data and the training of small-scale AI models. This system allows for on-site optimization without the need to move data between different platforms.
TPU 8i Max was developed to enable AI agents to process large software codes and long-duration videos simultaneously. This model aims to offer users higher processing power and expanded memory capacity.
Assessment: These new systems from Google are considered a strategic move to increase its competitive power against Nvidia's dominance in the AI chip market.
