Low Energy and Super-Efficient AI Chips
Etched is using ASIC chips. Taalas is using eASIC chips. They are both putting the logic into the hardware instead of using software on top of GPUs. There is the potential to get 100 to 1000 times more energy efficient than more generalized hardware where the software handles the AI.
A transformer ASIC is a specialized chip that directly integrates the transformer architecture into the hardware. An application-specific integrated circuit is an integrated circuit (IC) chip customized for a particular use, rather than intended for general-purpose use, such as a chip designed to run in a digital voice recorder or a high-efficiency video codec.
A successful commercial application of gate array circuitry was found in the low-end 8-bit ZX81 and ZX Spectrum personal computers, introduced in 1981 and 1982. These were used by Sinclair Research (UK) essentially as a low-cost I/O solution aimed at handling the computer's graphics.
