San Jose, CALIFORNIA (dpa-AFX) - US chip-maker Intel unveiled its latest
artificial intelligence (AI) chip on Tuesday in a move to take market
share from Nvidia.

Intel said the Gaudi 3 could generate AI responses, a process called
inference, faster than Nvidia's H100. It was also more power
efficient and cheaper, Intel said.

The H100 is one of Nvidia's most popular chips, powering AI for the
likes of Microsoft and Google. Nvidia's computer systems dominate AI
training in data centres and the company holds a market share
position of about 80%.

Intel said that the new chips would be available to customers
including Dell, Hewlett Packard Enterprise and Lenovo in the second
quarter of 2024.

'Innovation is advancing at an unprecedented pace, all enabled by
silicon - and every company is quickly becoming an AI company,' said
Intel chief executive Pat Gelsinger.

'Intel is bringing AI everywhere across the enterprise, from the PC
to the data center to the edge.'
