Nvidia授權Groq技術 加速AI晶片戰局




Nvidia加入大型科技企業收購熱潮,授權Groq技術並招攬高層人員

Nvidia最近宣布,將授權初創公司Groq的晶片技術,並聘請該公司行政總裁——一位曾在Alphabet旗下Google擁有豐富經驗的資深人士。Groq於週三在其官方博客中披露了這項合作。

這宗交易延續了近年大型科技公司與創新初創企業合作的趨勢:以高額資金取得技術和人才,但並不直接收購對方。

Groq專注於AI推理晶片(inference chip),即人工智能模型訓練完成後,對用戶請求作出響應的技術。Nvidia在AI模型訓練市場佔據主導地位,但在推理領域面臨更多競爭,包括傳統對手AMD,以及Groq和Cerebras Systems等初創企業。

Groq表示,此次授權是「非獨家」的,Groq創辦人Jonathan Ross(曾協助Google開展AI晶片計劃)、Groq總裁Sunny Madra及其他工程團隊成員將加入Nvidia。一位接近Nvidia的人士亦確認了這項授權協議。

Groq未公開交易財務細節。雖然CNBC報道稱Nvidia已同意以200億美元現金收購Groq,但雙方均未作出評論。Groq在博客中表示,將繼續以獨立公司身份運營,由Simon Edwards擔任行政總裁,旗下雲端業務亦會持續運作。

類似的收購模式近期亦見於其他巨頭:微軟曾以6.5億美元的授權費從初創企業引入AI高管,Meta則花費150億美元聘請Scale AI行政總裁,但並未收購整間公司。亞馬遜也曾從Adept AI挖角創辦人,Nvidia今年亦有類似操作。這些交易均受到監管機構關注,但尚未被撤銷。

Bernstein分析師Stacy Rasgon指出,反壟斷是主要風險,但以非獨家授權形式交易,或可保持競爭假象(儘管Groq的領導層和技術人才將轉投Nvidia)。他又提到Nvidia行政總裁黃仁勳與特朗普政府關係密切,是美國科技巨頭中較強的。

Groq去年8月估值由28億美元翻倍至69億美元,隨後9月完成7.5億美元融資。

Groq的技術不倚賴外部高帶寬記憶體晶片,避免了全球晶片產業面臨的記憶體瓶頸。它採用一種稱為SRAM的片上記憶體,有助加快與聊天機械人等AI模型的互動,但同時限制了能處理的模型大小。

Groq的主要競爭對手是Cerebras Systems,後者據報計劃於明年上市。Groq和Cerebras已在中東簽訂多筆大額合約。

Nvidia行政總裁黃仁勳在2025年最大主題演講中強調,Nvidia將保持其在AI市場的領先地位,尤其是在AI技術從訓練向推理轉移的趨勢中。

評論與啟示

Nvidia此舉顯示大型科技公司在AI晶片領域的戰略調整,從單純追求訓練晶片市場的壟斷,轉向加強推理晶片的競爭力。授權而非全盤收購的策略,反映出在監管壓力日增的環境下,科技巨頭尋求更靈活、風險較低的市場佈局方法。

Groq的技術路線——不依賴外部高帶寬記憶體,專注於片上SRAM設計——展示了晶片產業在突破性能瓶頸上的創新方向。這種技術雖然限制了模型規模,但在推理速度和能效上具備優勢,正好切合聊天機械人及即時AI應用的需求。未來AI推理晶片的競爭將更加激烈,Nvidia必須整合這些新興技術和人才,才能維持領先。

另一方面,這波科技巨頭以高額授權費或挖角創辦人的方式整合人才與技術,對創業生態帶來挑戰。初創公司在資金和技術上受益,但長遠看可能喪失獨立發展空間,市場競爭減少,技術多樣性受限。監管機構如何平衡促進創新與防止壟斷,將是未來焦點。

最後,黃仁勳與美國前政府關係密切,或為Nvidia在政策層面提供支持,這種政治經濟的結合也值得關注。整體而言,Nvidia與Groq的合作是AI晶片產業格局變動的縮影,港澳投資者及業界應密切留意這些科技巨頭的動向及其對全球AI發展的深遠影響。

[Subject]: Young Asian female with "Imada Mio-inspired" doll-like aesthetic (精緻洋娃娃臉). She has large round expressive eyes, a small V-line face, and rosy cheeks. Her expression is innocent, energetic, and slightly flirty. [Hair]: Messy morning hair (剛睡醒的凌亂感), long dark brown hair, slightly tousled, natural volume. [Outfit]: Wearing an oversized translucent white button-down shirt (男友風白襯衫), unbuttoned at the top to reveal collarbones, creating a "bottomless" look (下衣失蹤風格). [Style]: Japanese Gravure Photobook style (寫真集風格), Pure & Sexy vibe, bright high-key lighting, soft skin texture, Fujifilm PRO 400H color tone. A young woman with fair skin is taking a selfie inside a fitness center (gym).

Main Subject: A young woman with long black hair in a messy bun. She is wearing a light cream or ivory long-sleeved sports zipper jacket and black tight sports shorts. She is also wearing long white socks with black stripes at the top and white sports shoes.

Expression and Pose: She is sitting on a weight training machine (apparently a leg press machine or similar) and holding a phone (with a leopard/leopard print case) to take a selfie in the mirror or using the front camera, with her face forward, a soft smile, and her face and eyes looking at the mirror.

Background (Gym): The background is dominated by modern gym equipment in dark gray and red. There are a few other unfocused people in the background, including a man on the left lifting weights or standing near a barbell, and another man in a green shirt standing near equipment. The gym floor appears dark.

Brief Prompt (Suitable for Image Search or Hashtags):

Selfie in the gym, young woman with messy bun and cream jacket, sitting on a training machine, aesthetic sporty, indoor lighting. Without changing her face. Generate an ultra-realistic, highly ultra-detailed, 8k resolution with 1080x1080 pixel portrait of me using the uploaded image for reference (preserved the likeness and the original face for reference) of a ultra-sharp studio portrait of a confident woman kneeling on the floor with her body slightly leaning back, her right hand gently touching her hair, and her left arm resting on her bent knee. She is dressed in a sleek, strapless black bodysuit that accentuates her figure, paired with elegant black patterned lace pantyhose that add texture and sophistication. She wears a pair of classic black high heels, elevating her posture and emphasizing her elongated legs. The background is a seamless, pure white studio backdrop, providing a clean and minimalist aesthetic that directs full focus to her form and attire. *** The lighting setup is soft, evenly distributed, with a diffused key light positioned to the left, casting gentle shadows that sculpt her contours and highlight the intricate lace pattern of her tights. The overall color palette is monochromatic, emphasizing blacks and whites to create a timeless, sophisticated mood. The composition is carefully balanced, capturing her from the waist up in a slightly angled pose that accentuates her curves and confidence. Use a professional camera with a 85mm or 50mm lens at wide aperture (f/1.8 to f/2.😎 for a shallow depth of field, ensuring crisp detail on her outfit and pose while softly blurring the background. Post-process minimally to enhance clarity, contrast, and natural skin tones, maintaining a polished, elegant, and modern aesthetic suitable for fashion or editorial photography.
