OpenAI introduced its debut chip Jalapeno — it promises to make ChatGPT cheaper to run

General News

Summary

OpenAI is developing its first in-house chip, codenamed Jalapeno, to lower the cost of running ChatGPT. The chip effort is tied to Broadcom and is aimed at reducing OpenAI’s dependence on external AI compute supply. The article says Jalapeno is expected to reach mass production in 2028, which makes this a long-horizon infrastructure move rather than a near-term product release. The piece also notes OpenAI’s broader spending on compute and the market’s reaction to Broadcom’s role in the deal.
