AI chip design startup Ricursive Intelligence tackles 10,000x compute demand

ricursive intelligence, founded by anna goldie and azalia mirhoseini, is using ai to design more efficient chips to help solve the compute crisis. the startup's ai system can design chips, learn from each iteration, and improve subsequent designs, all with the goal of automating and accelerating the chip design process. according to goldie, there is an understanding that in the next five years, there will be at least a 10,000x increase in demand for compute. ricursive intelligence aims to make chips that use bandwidth, wafers, and fabs more efficiently. the founders believe that ai-designed chips will enable humans to focus on developing applications and exploring new possibilities, and make it possible to create chips that might not have been possible before.
