AI chip firm Tenstorrent, led by renowned microprocessor engineer Jim Keller, just announced new devkits and AI workstations powered by the company’s leading-edge Wormhole accelerators. Tenstorrent has previously offered devkits (development kits) based on its Grayskull AI processor (and will continue doing so while inventory is available), but Wormhole features a newer, more-powerful architecture, and this marks the first time the company has offered complete workstations built around its chips.

In addition to the IP licensing part of the agreement, Tenstorrent will also collaborate with LSTC to help co-design the chip…
Read MoreArtificial Intelligence is a new hotbed of opportunity, and along with this new market comes a requirement for a very different set of silicon and software solutions to accelerate and process specialized AI workloads. It’s in this burgeoning field that Tenstorrent hopes to disrupt the silicon landscape with more flexible chip architectures not based on either of the legacy X86 or Arm instruction sets and ecosystems, but instead on the open standard RISC-V instruction set architecture that’s available royalty free and open source.
