Samsung Has Its Own AI-Designed Chip. Soon, Others Will Too

Samsung is using artificial intelligence to automate the insanely complex and subtle process of designing cutting-edge computer chips. The South Korean giant is one of the first chipmakers to use AI to create its chips. Samsung is using AI features in new software from Synopsys, a leading chip design software firm used by many companies. "What you're seeing here is the first of a real commercial processor design with AI," says Aart de Geus, the chairman and co-CEO of Synopsys. Others, including Google and Nvidia, have talked about designing chips with AI.
