|
|
|
Taiwanese startup Skymizer has formally announced a strategic partnership with Egis Technology to develop Flow (T12), a new-generation AI inference chip. Fabricated on TSMC's 12nm node and paired with LPDDR5 memory, the solution requires just three PCIe cards and 750W of power to run 3-trillion-parameter large language models (LLMs).

More telling than the record is how the company now describes its order book. Long-term agreements with 14 major customers already cover more than half of its production capacity for 2027 and 2028....
