Tachyum forced to shutter R&D office due to unpaid rent, wages, and taxes — firm still claims forthcoming Prodigy chip will have a 21x performance leap on Nvidia Rubin Ultra

Tachyum, known for its ambitious Prodigy chip claims, faces immediate challenges as it loses its R&D office in Bratislava due to unpaid rent, wages, and taxes totaling €150,000. Despite debts and uncertainties, the company received a substantial investment and a large purchase order. Tachyum asserts ongoing negotiations with investors to settle debts but hasn't disclosed future operational plans. The Prodigy chip, promised to outperform Nvidia Rubin Ultra by 21x, has faced delays and evolving specifications since its announcement in 2018.
