OpenAI, the company behind artificial intelligence chatbot ChatGPT, is reportedly exploring the possibility of manufacturing processing chips in-house amid a global shortage of the expensive and difficult to produce hardware.<\/p>\n

An Oct. 5 Reuters report<\/a> citing people familiar with the matter said OpenAI has even evaluated an unnamed company as a potential target for an acquisition to help with its AI chip making ambitions.<\/p>\n

The company has not yet decided if it will move on the acquisition. OpenAI has also been internally discussing a number of other options to address the current chip shortage.<\/p>\n

Beside building its own chips, the options include working more closely with its current primary chip supplier NVIDIA and diversifying chip suppliers beyond its current providers.<\/p>\n

Earlier this year, OpenAI founder and CEO Sam Altman complained to a room full of AI developers that chip shortages<\/a> were delaying his company\u2019s progress, according to a now-deleted blog post<\/a> written by Raza Habib, the CEO of AI firm Humanloop.<\/p>\n

\u201cA common theme that came up throughout the discussion was that currently OpenAI is extremely GPU-limited and this is delaying a lot of their short-term plans,\u201d Habib wrote. <\/p>\n

If OpenAI does proceed with the reported plan to manufacture its own chips, it will join a small group of tech industry heavyweights, including Google and Amazon, that moved chip production in-house. <\/p>\n

Since the public launch of ChatGPT in November last year the demand for specialized AI chips has skyrocketed<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The ensuing wave of demand has seen NVIDIA\u2019s share price surge<\/a> as companies looking to build AI applications clamor to purchase the costly computing hardware.<\/p>\n

OpenAI did not immediately respond to Cointelgraph\u2019s request for comment.<\/p>\n
