What is the difference between ai chip and cpu?

1. Functional differences:

< br >

The functions of cpu are sequence control, operation control, time control, data processing, interpretation of computer instructions, and processing of data in computer software. All operations in the computer are the core parts of the CPU that are responsible for reading instructions, decoding instructions and executing instructions.

< br >

The function of the ai chip is to provide support for the type and frequency of the CPU, the type and maximum capacity of the memory, ISA\/PCI\/AGP slots, ECC error correction, and so on.

< br >

2. Different composition:

< br >

The ai chip refers to the electronic logic gate circuit burned to the silicon chip with a laser, thus forming a variety of chips, and today's most integrated and powerful should be the CPU chip. CPU refers to all periods, a variety of electronic components of the computer central processing unit collectively.

3. Different definitions:

< br >

In electronics, chips are a way to miniaturize circuits (mainly including semiconductor devices, but also including passive components, etc.), and are usually manufactured on the surface of semiconductor wafers, integrated circuit blocks are called, memory does not change abnormally means that this type of memory is not required to constantly maintain energy.

< br >

cpu is one of the main equipment of the electronic computer, the core accessories in the computer.

< br >

4, production composition is different:

< br >

The preparation of the chip mainly depends on the micro-machining, automation and chemical synthesis technology, and the CPU includes the arithmetic logic component, the register component, the arithmetic device and the control component.


The difference between an AI chip and a CPU is that an AI chip is a specialized chip designed for AI algorithms, while a CPU is a general-purpose processor suitable for most computing tasks. When executing AI algorithms, AI chips are faster and more energy efficient.

In addition, there is no difference in the process of AI chips, everyone is the same. At least for now, it's all the same.


1, performance and traditional chips, such as CPU, GPU is very different. Faster and more energy efficient when executing AI algorithms. The speed of ordinary chips is slow, the performance is low, can not be practically commercial.

2, ordinary chips in the process of uploading and downloading, it is entirely possible to have data leakage problems. The ai chip can calculate on the mobile phone terminal, without the need to upload to the cloud, avoiding the risk of data leakage.

< br >

3. ai chips are mostly custom asic chips for hardware acceleration of special data types and certain operations (convolution, etc.), while gpu is a general computing platform that can compute graphics and neural networks through interfaces.

1 Design: CPU is a very large scale integrated circuit, and AI chips are chips designed for a specific task, such as ASics, FPgas, and DSPS.

2. Functions: CPU mainly interprets computer instructions and processes data, while AI chips have higher parallel computing capabilities and lower power consumption, supporting artificial intelligence applications such as deep learning and natural language processing.

3. Application: CPU is widely used in various computer applications, while AI chips are mainly used to support artificial intelligence-related applications, such as speech recognition and image recognition

In short, AI chips and cpus play different roles in computers. AI chips are mainly used to support artificial intelligence applications, with higher computing power and lower power consumption, while cpus are the core components of computers, mainly used for data processing and instruction interpretation.
