China announces CPU-only exascale supercomputer with 47,000 homemade processors, record 2 Exaflops of performance without GPUs — Lingshen super said to use Huawei Kunpeng servers and no foreign-made components

China's National Supercomputing Center in Shenzhen unveiled the Lingshen supercomputer project, aiming for over 2 ExaFLOPS performance using 47,000 homemade processors without GPUs or foreign components. The system, designed to surpass the current fastest supercomputer, El Capitan, would utilize Huawei Kunpeng servers and Arm-based Taishan cores. The project includes a pilot phase with 100 servers and a full production system with 1,580 blade servers. While China's claims of achieving 2+ ExaFLOPS are ambitious, questions remain about the feasibility of surpassing existing supercomputing benchmarks without GPUs or foreign-made CPUs.

SpaceX says it is going to begin manufacturing GPUs — $1.75 trillion IPO listing reportedly includes in-house GPU production

SpaceX's confidential $1.75 trillion IPO filing reveals plans to manufacture its own GPUs, investing billions in internal processor production due to a lack of long-term supply agreements with silicon suppliers. The company's intention to build GPUs, not specialized AI accelerators, is highlighted, with the naming convention still uncertain. While SpaceX's CEO confirmed plans for high-volume semiconductor manufacturing, the specifics of the GPUs remain unclear, raising questions about potential competition with existing AI GPU manufacturers like AMD and Nvidia. The S-1 form's confidential nature prevents verification of its content, leaving room for speculation on SpaceX's semiconductor endeavors.
