OpenAI plans to build its own AI chips on TSMC's forthcoming 1.6 nm A16 process node
ChatGPT developer OpenAI has been musing over building its own AI chips for some time now but it looks like the project is definitely going ahead, as United Daily News reports the company is paying TSMC to make the new chips. But rather than using its current N4 or N3 process nodes, OpenAI has booked production slots for the 1.6 nm, so-called A16, process node.
