OPENAI’S JALAPENO CHIP OUTPACES NVIDIA IN TESTS OpenAI says its new Jalapeno AI chip beat Nvidia’s GB300 in power efficiency and response speed during testing. Developed with Broadcom, Jalapeno targets AI inference and could lower data-center costs while handling large models. OpenAI plans to deploy the chip later this year, while developing second- and third-generation versions. However, Jalapeno wasn’t tested against Nvidia’s newer Vera Rubin chips.(*Walter Bloomberg)
