Strengthening AI Competitiveness

Recognising the critical role of high-performance AI semiconductors in implementing AI technology, LG has stated that it plans to strengthen its in-house development capabilities while collaborating with global companies, including Tenstorrent, to boost its AI competitiveness.

Technologies Powering SoC Development

LG noted that Tenstorrent is renowned for its ability to design high-performance computing (HPC) semiconductors using its RISC-V IP (Ascalon) and AI IP (Tensix). RISC-V is an open-source instruction set architecture (ISA) based on reduced instruction set computing (RISC) principles, allowing for flexible and customisable processor designs.

Tenstorrent’s IP is engineered to scale from milliwatts to megawatts, delivering efficiency and performance. This expertise will help LG strengthen its AI-driven innovation, the company said.

LG and Tenstorrent have recently explored opportunities to leverage their intellectual properties, design assets and technologies, aiming to create synergies across various business areas, including AI home appliances, smart home solutions, future mobility, and video processing solutions for the data centre market.
