What it does

**OCPU: First AI-Designed Chip** AI-created from scratch, not human-optimized. - 80% transistors for compute → 5× perf/watt - Built in 3 months, ~$10M (vs $5–10B, years) - Brain-style memory: -95% latency, -70% power Matches top GPUs at 1/60th cost, 1/14th power. On-chip learning. Custom chips for anyone. The start of AI-born hardware.

    I built a toy TPU that can do inference and training on the XOR problem2025 · tinytpu.com · ▲134

    We wanted to do something very challenging to prove to ourselves that we can do anything we put our mind to. The reasoning for why we chose to build a toy TPU specifically is fairly simple: - Building a chip for ML workloads seemed cool - There was no well-documented open source repo for an ML accelerator that performed both inference and training None of us have real professional experience in hardware design, which, in a way, made the TPU even more appealing since we weren't able to estimate exactly how difficult it would be. As we worked on the initial stages of this project, we…

  • Hello my name is Ben Ward for the past 3 years I have been remastering the financial game Wall Street Raider created by Michael Jenkins originally on DOS in 1986. It has been a rough journey but I finally see the light at the end of the tunnel. I just recently redid the website and thought maybe the full story of how this project came to be would interest you all. Thank you for reading.
