OpenAI 与 Synopsys 达成多年战略合作，共建芯片设计 AI 模型 GPT-Synopsys

OpenAI and Synopsys have signed a multi-year strategic partnership to build a specialized AI model for chip design called GPT-Synopsys. Synopsys makes electronic design automation (EDA) tools, the software engineers use to design computer chips and semiconductors.

GPT-Synopsys combines OpenAI's AI technology with Synopsys' EDA tools. OpenAI is licensing Synopsys' EDA tools for the project. The goal is a model that can "reason about chip design and verification, and to directly operate Synopsys' tools." Engineers will delegate design objectives and review and approve the output.

The model will run on OpenAI's infrastructure. Customer data won't be used for training and will be stored encrypted, according to both companies. Early tests with semiconductor customers are already underway. Both companies will market the product together and share revenue.

Synopsys CEO Sassine Ghazi says AI could significantly speed up the design process. OpenAI co-founder Greg Brockman sees the partnership as a path to better chips and better AI. OpenAI is already working with Broadcom on chips built specifically for running AI models. The recently unveiled Jalapeno chip is very competitive against similar specialized chips.
