このブログでも、何度か、ちょこっと書いていた Groq

AI Hardware Summitのスポンサーの1社である Groq の発表がキャンセルされたと。

Groqの席が空きっぱなし。。。

Groqの部分だけ、引用しますね。

The big no-show
A number of companies originally signed on to present or sponsor at AI Hardware Summit pulled out of the show.

Of those the most awkward was Groq, which canceled its presentation so late that its sponsorship was still prominently displayed on the stage banner. The reasons that the company gave to press and analysts scheduled for pre-briefinng on a major announcement had to do with a “customer issue.” This last-minute change certainly drew speculation that the company had hit a snag. The press and analysts at the show had a number of theories including problems with the first test chip, a customer that was unwilling to let the company talk about their solution, or potentially acquisition offer had been made. Groq was formed by a team of engineers that built the first Google TPU chip, and was well-funded. Unfortunately, Groq was going to be the big reveal of the show.

 顧客の問題とありますが、どうなんでしょうね。。。

人は募集しているのですが、ASIC開発者( PCle/SERDES )とあるので、まだ、チップできていないのかな?

どうなんでしょうかね。
