Definition
The term, in context
AI-assisted draft · approved dataset
Jalapeño is a custom accelerator chip co-developed by OpenAI and Broadcom, architected around the specific compute and memory-movement patterns of OpenAI's own large models rather than as a general-purpose graphics processor. OpenAI drove the workload-specific design, while Broadcom handled the physical chip implementation and networking components.
