Intel plans to ship a new Artificial Intelligence data centre chip by the end of this year. The company is positioning the product against rival offerings from Nvidia and AMD, with an emphasis on cheaper memory and cooling technology.
The chip is aimed at the data centre market, where demand for Artificial Intelligence hardware has intensified competition among major semiconductor groups. Intel is seeking to challenge competitors by focusing on cost-related advantages in the design and deployment of its new processor.
The available details indicate that Intel’s approach centers on reducing the expense associated with the memory and cooling systems used alongside Artificial Intelligence chips. That strategy suggests an effort to appeal to customers looking for alternatives to existing high-performance products from Nvidia and AMD in data centre deployments.
