"Google Introduces Arm-Based Data Center Processor and AI Chip"
Originally Published 1 year ago — by Reuters

Google unveiled a new version of its data center artificial intelligence chips, called TPU v5p, and announced an Arm-based central processor named Axion, which offers superior performance to x86 chips. The company plans to offer Axion via Google Cloud and aims to power services such as YouTube Ads in Google Cloud "soon." The TPU v5p chip is built to run in pods of 8,960 chips and can achieve twice the raw performance as the prior generation of TPUs. This move positions Google to compete with other cloud operators and provides developers with an alternative to Nvidia's AI chips.
