You make it sound like TPUs are a Google X startup that's going to get killed tomorrow. lmm 5 months ago What revenue is that? Hardly anyone's paying for Google's AI directly, and it doesn't seem to have dramatically changed their ad business. happyopossum 5 months ago GP said ML, not Ai - Google’s entire search and ad businesses are run on ML, as are many of the moonshots of alphabet (deep mind, Waymo, etc). rossjudson 5 months ago Like all 5 of your AI friends aren't paying for Google AI? ;) hackernudes 5 months ago Why do you say that? They are on their seventh iteration of hardware and even from the beginning (according to the article) they were designed to serve Google AI needs.My take is "sell access to TPUs on Google cloud" is the nice side effect. wkat4242 5 months ago I think you're thinking of the coral ones. The only ones they've sold directly to the public. surajrmal 5 months ago On what basis do you make that claim? It's incredibly misleading and wrong.
