In a significant strategic shift, OpenAI has announced a partnership with Broadcom to produce its own AI accelerators, dubbed "OpenAI chips." The collaboration aims to deploy 10 gigawatts of compute power starting as soon as mid-2026—a remarkably swift timeline considering the scale. This move marks a clear effort by OpenAI to reduce reliance on Nvidia, which currently dominates the AI hardware landscape.
