Google Develops New AI Chip 'Frozen v2' to Enhance Gemini Model Efficiency
Google is developing a new AI server chip, codenamed Frozen v2, designed to integrate elements of its Gemini AI model directly into hardware. Expected by 2028, the chip aims to improve efficiency by six to ten times compared to current custom AI chips, addressing computing capacity constraints that have affected Google Cloud's external deals. Frozen v2 will complement, not replace, Google's existing Tensor Processing Units, embedding core AI architecture to reduce computation and power use. Engineers are still finalizing its design and the extent of hardwired model information.
