Qualcomm to Produce Data Center Processors Compatible with Nvidia
Qualcomm is planning to create data center processors that will work with Nvidia's AI chips.
These processors will use technology from Nvidia to connect with their graphics processors, which are very important for AI.
Qualcomm previously tried to make these kinds of processors but stopped.
Now, they're starting again, with plans to partner with Nvidia.
This means that computers in data centers will be able to work better and faster with AI.
Qualcomm hopes to make these new processors more energy-efficient and powerful for data centers, using Nvidia's technology to link with their GPUs.
They have a deal with a Saudi Arabian firm to make these chips.
Qualcomm will make custom data center CPUs.
These CPUs will use Nvidia technology to connect to Nvidia's AI chips.
Qualcomm previously developed similar CPUs in the 2010s but stopped.
Qualcomm is again working with Meta about data center CPUs.
Qualcomm has a deal with Humain to develop a custom data center CPU.
