Chip Architecture

Google is gearing up to launch its Tensor G6 chip, codenamed Malibu, and early details indicate a notable shift in strategy. As first reported by Wccftech, the new system-on-chip (SoC) appears to lean toward cost efficiency by using a refreshed version of a GPU that is already five years old. This decision raises eyebrows, especially considering the industry’s trend toward advanced, memory-centric designs often referred to as “chipflation.”
