Did you ever want to know how to design an AI chip, both software and hardware? Well, I wrote this detailed document about that, so now you can read all about it. For free!
I used to work at Google on TPUs and at Nvidia on GPUs, so I have some idea about this, though the design I suggest is not the same as TPUs or GPUs.
I also included many anecdotes from my career in Silicon Valley that even people with less interest in AI hardware and software may find interesting.
This document came to be because I was considering making a startup for making an AI chip along the lines described in this document some time back. I eventually decided not to do that for personal reasons. So if you're running an AI hardware company, here's what a competitor that you now won't have would have planned to do. Usually such plans would be all hush-hush, but since I never started the company, you can get to know about it.
