Google launches two new TPU chips, stepping up competition with Nvidia

Google will launch two new Tensor Processing Unit (TPU) chips, the TPU 8tx and 8i Max, to meet the needs of different AI applications.

The TPU 8tx is designed for confidential computing needs at government agencies and in regulated industries, and works in conjunction with AMD chips. The TPU 8i Max is primarily aimed at AI applications that require long context windows; it boosts computing power and memory capacity by packaging two TPU chips together.

Google chip chief Amin Vahdat said the two new products are expected to launch next year. Industry research estimates that sales of Google TPU-related chips, software, and hardware will exceed $135 billion by 2028, up from an estimated $12 billion this year.
