Google Makes Its Special A.I. Chips Available to Others<br />A new wave of artificial intelligence, including services like Google Assistant, are driven by “neural networks,” which are complex algorithms<br />that can learn tasks on their own by analyzing vast amounts of data.<br />“This is about packing as much computing power as possible within a small area, within a heat budget, within a power budget,” Mr. Bisson said.<br />As a way of cutting costs and improving the efficiency of the multibillion-dollar data centers<br />that underpin its online empire, Google designs much of the hardware inside these massive facilities, from the computer servers to the networking gear that ties these machines together.<br />MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. — A few years ago, Google created a new kind of computer chip to help power its giant artificial intelligence systems.
