Google reportedly developing new AI chip in Israel
Google has formed an Israeli team led by Hailo executive Guy Kaminitz to develop chips for robots and autonomous systems, plus a new AI chip in Israel. It also hired former NVIDIA Israel executive Ido Bukspan for data networking chips. Google began chip operations in Israel under Google Cloud in 2021 and employs around 700 engineers in Tel Aviv and Haifa. The new team is developing an AI chip to run tasks directly on devices rather than cloud servers, aiming to speed processing and reduce cloud reliance. Google declined to comment.
