CEO-Led AI Gets 3X the ROI

Today on the AI Daily Brief, why companies where CEO owns the AI strategy are seeing three times as much ROI. Before that in the headlines, so much is going on including OpenAI announcing their first custom designed chip. The AI Daily Brief is a daily podcast and video about the most important news and discussions in AI. Alright, friends. Quick announcements before we dive in.

The new executive agent leadership program kicks off next week and is registering now. Man, some days, there is one dominant story that just absolutely kicks into dust all the small things that are happening around it. And then there are other days where there's no one singular story that everyone is talking about, but about a million smaller stories that if we're looking for them correctly, tell us all sorts about what's actually happening in the world of AI and almost serve as tea leaves for what might happen next. Today is one of those days, so these headlines might be a little bit longer than five minutes. First up, OpenAI has unveiled their first in house chip. The chip is codenamed Jalapeno and was produced in collaboration with Broadcom. OpenAI referred to Jalapeno as an integrated processor and described it as the first AI accelerator in a multi generation compute platform. In a statement, OpenAI president Greg Brockman said, the world is moving to a compute powered economy. Jalapeno is part of our long term full stack infrastructure strategy to make compute more abundant, resulting in AI which is faster, more reliable, more affordable for people and businesses, and can be used to solve more important problems. By designing more of the stack ourselves, we can serve more intelligence with greater efficiency and keep pushing advanced AI towards broader access. The chip is an ASIC similar to Google's TPUs, which means it's designed for the specific task of serving inference for LLMs. By contrast, NVIDIA's GPUs are much more general in their application. OpenAI said that they believe this to be the fastest development cycle ever for a high performance ASIC, going from initial design to manufacturing tape out in nine months. In an interview with CNBC, Brockman credited the speed to AI enhanced design, commenting, the degree to which our models have been able to accelerate it was very surprising to us. Now while OpenAI will begin deploying the chips as soon as they're ready, this almost certainly does not mean they'll cut down on NVIDIA orders. Brockman reaffirmed that OpenAI, quote, cannot get compute fast enough. Appearing alongside Brockman, Broadcom CEO Hock Tan agreed, stating that compute demand from all …
