Nvidia-OpenAI partnership strengthens as ChatGPT-maker puts Google TPUs on backseat

Nvidia is solidifying its partnership with OpenAI after the ChatGPT maker confirmed it has no immediate plans to extensively deploy Google’s in-house artificial intelligence (AI) chips. This comes despite a recent cloud collaboration between the two AI rivals, a report said.“We’re proud to partner with OpenAI and continue powering the foundation of their work,” Nvidia posted on X (formerly Twitter), while resharing a report by news agency Reuters stating OpenAI’s decision to not use Google’s tensor processing units (TPUs) at scale.

An OpenAI spokesperson told the agency over the weekend that while the AI lab is conducting early tests with some Google TPUs, there are no active plans for large-scale adoption.
