NVidia announces they are building new generation TPU's and two days later Google announces that they have them in Google Cloud. God Speed!

  they're not talking about the same TPU

    The comment is a fun poke. Please don't take it literally! NVidia's new Volta GPU has Tensor cores that I think are very similar to what was in first generation TPU. I read the TPU papers and blogs published recently and I am seriously impressed by TPUs!

      The Volta is 16-bit floating point, so closer to second-gen TPU. The first-gen TPU was integer only and used for prediction, not training.

  Maybe they are designed and built by AI itself? /s

    You're joking, but I wonder how far off this is?
