NVIDIA斥資200億美元結盟Groq?AI晶片霸權之爭或已塵埃落定
NVIDIA與AI晶片新創公司Groq達成非排他性技術授權協議,傳聞交易規模達200億美元。此舉將Groq的LPU技術納入麾下,進一步鞏固NVIDIA在AI硬體領域的霸主地位。本文深入分析其戰略意涵。
AI晶片戰爭的格局,一夜之間風雲變色。產業龍頭NVIDIA在2025年12月24日宣布,與最強勁的挑戰者Groq達成技術授權協議,這究竟是強強聯手,還是精心策畫的收編?
200億美元的「非收購」協議
根據NVIDIA的官方說法,這是一項非排他性的技術授權協議,Groq創辦人喬納森·羅斯(Jonathan Ross)及部分員工將加入NVIDIA。TechCrunch報導,NVIDIA強調此舉並非收購整間公司。然而,CNBC引述消息指出,NVIDIA實則是以200億美元收購Groq的資產。若此數字屬實,將成為NVIDIA有史以來最大規模的交易,讓外界霧裡看花。
Groq的王牌:LPU技術
NVIDIA為何需要一個競爭對手的技術?關鍵在於Groq獨家開發的LPU(語言處理單元)。Groq聲稱,LPU運行大型語言模型(LLM)的速度比傳統GPU快上10倍,而能耗僅為其十分之一。其創辦人羅斯過去在Google任職時,便是客製化AI晶片TPU(張量處理單元)的發明者之一,其實力不容小覷。
Groq的成長速度十分驚人。該公司在今年9月才剛完成7.5億美元的募資,估值達到69億美元。其技術所支援的開發者數量,也從去年的約35.6萬人,暴增至超過200萬人。
