Google Is Expected To Unveil Plans For A.I. And AR Technologies | CNBC
Google on Tuesday announced that it has developed a third generation of its special chips for artificial intelligence.
The new Tensor Processing Units (TPUs) will help Google improve applications that use artificial intelligence to do things like recognize words people are saying in audio recordings, spot objects in photos and videos, and pick up underlying emotions in written text. As such, the chips represent an alternative to Nvidia’s graphics processing units.
Also, if the new version is anything like its predecessor, it will also become accessible to third-party developers through Google’s public cloud service, which could help Google compete with Amazon and Microsoft. Earlier this week Microsoft announced the early availability of special chips in its Azure cloud.
Pichai boasted about the vast computing power that’s possible when people use large fleets of these third-generation TPUs.
“Each of these pods is now eight times more powerful than last year’s version — well over 100 petaflops,” he said. For context, a box containing 16 of Nvidia’s latest GPUs offers two petaflops of computing power.
The chips are liquid-cooled — a feature that’s sometimes used for high-performance computing chips or some performance-oriented chips in people’s PCs.
Last year’s version is already showing good results. Test results posted in recent months suggest that the second-generation TPUs could deliver better performance than existing options with GPUs in certain scenarios, although the TPUs do have certain limitations, like lacking support for the Facebook-backed PyTorch AI software framework. The PyTorch open-source community has been working to change that.
Google first announced the TPU initiative in 2016.

What Makes Paramount Skydance’s Deal For Warner Bros. Discovery So Unique

Meta is facing what could be its most consequential trial yet, as 29 state attorneys general accuse the tech giant of knowingly designing Facebook and Instagram to addict children and misleading the public about the risks. The states are seeking civil penalties that could approach $200 billion and changes to core features like infinite scroll and autoplay, while Meta says the claims are unsubstantiated and that it has built strong protections for teens. The outcome of the federal trial could reshape how social media platforms are designed and open the door to greater liability for companies across the industry. CNBC’s Julia Boorstin examines why this case could become Big Tech’s “Big Tobacco” moment, and what a loss could mean for Meta’s business and the future of social media.

The Meta Trial That Could Reshape Facebook And Instagram

Micron was founded in the basement of a dental office in Boise, Idaho, nearly 50 years ago and has remained an under-the-radar semiconductor company for decades. Now, suddenly it’s minting millionaires and spending $50 billion to build new factories that are transforming its hometown into America’s latest boomtown. Unprecedented demand for memory has increased its stock value more than 10-fold since 2024. Sprawling homes are selling above listing price and Idaho has the fastest statewide population growth in the country. CNBC talked to wealth managers and real estate agents who now primarily work with Micron employees, jewelry store owners who say business is booming, and other Boise locals concerned about increasing traffic and strain on infrastructure, power and water.
