I think the truth is the Tensor is a barely modified Samsung Exynos.
- coder543 3y agoThe Tensor G1 was probably pretty close to that, but I think subsequent generations have been diverging more. They are still made at Samsung's fabs, and I wouldn't be surprised if Samsung is still helping to design the chips. Either way, I haven't seen anything to be impressed by when it comes to the Tensor SoCs themselves. The performance is lackluster, and in spite of Google's marketing, the AI acceleration isn't clearly better than what Qualcomm or Apple are offering.
