Apple Uses 2,048 Google TPUs to Train Two AI Models, Shifts from Nvidia
Jul 30, 2024, 04:43 AM
Apple has disclosed that it used Google's custom Tensor Processing Units (TPUs) to train its AI models, marking a shift from its previous reliance on Nvidia GPUs. According to a research paper, Apple utilized 2,048 of Google's TPUv5p chips to pre-train the AI models underpinning Apple Intelligence. This move highlights a significant collaboration between the two tech giants and indicates a trend among major technology companies to explore alternatives to Nvidia's GPUs for AI training. The AI models trained on Google's TPUs are part of Apple's new artificial intelligence software infrastructure, which will power its forthcoming suite of AI tools and features. The research paper specifically mentions that two AI models were trained using these TPUs.
