Andrew Curran says Google's AlphaChip figures are two years old

Andrew Curran says Google's AlphaChip chip-design figures come from a 2024 paper and have not been updated in over two years.

He says Gemini is now accelerating Google's AI hardware design work, which he says began well before others started.

Sundar Pichai says Google shipped four distinct TPU systems in one generation within a year, with hardware engineers co-designing alongside Google DeepMind. The report does not include independent verification of either claim.
