Google Adds TPU 8i Max System With Double the Compute of TPU 8i

Google unveiled the TPU 8i Max on Nov. 9, adding a system with twice the compute and memory bandwidth of its TPU 8i for larger AI workloads. The 8i Max combines two existing TPU 8i chips in one package. It is a new system configuration, not a new chip design. The TPU 8i is built for real-time AI reasoning, while the TPU 8t serves large-scale model training. Google introduced both in April. Google also unveiled the TPU 8tx system , which protects sensitive data while AI models process it. The 8tx uses the same silicon as the TPU 8t and pairs with fifth-generation AMD EPYC processors. Together, the two configurations extend Google's existing TPU lineup to cover different processing and security needs.
