The applications ofArtificial Intelligenceare increasing by the day, from something as simple as writing a short essay to utilization in industries. Recently, Intel shared an exciting update about using homegrown AI tools to speed up the designing of processors.
Intel claims that the AI tools helped engineers find the optimal positioning for heat-sensitive sensors on processors, a work otherwise done manually through previously available data and design-specific decisions. With AI, the design time has been reduced from up to 6 weeks to a few minutes.
Instead of using the termArtificial Intelligence, Intel goes withAugmented Intelligence, which it defines as a subset of the former, centered around interactions between humans and machines.
Intel explains how augmented intelligence aids in processor design
AI assistsSystem-on-Chip (SoC)designers in finding the perfect spot for thermal sensors.Mark Gallina, CCG principal engineer, explains the previously employed process,
Now, they don’t have to run a series of tests on input/output (I/O), CPU core, and other system functions. With the in-house AI tool, designers just put in all the boundary conditions and variables, and the tool comes up with optimal design suggestions within minutes.
Shedding light on the improvements,Mark Gallinasays,
The AI tool that revolutionized chip design was developed by a team headed byOlena Zhufrom Intel’sClient Computing Group (CCG).
Intel is also finding more applications for augmented intelligence in manufacturing and designing, thus improving process efficiency. For instance, AI has helped to reduce the time spent testing individual processors by 50%. Another automatic failure analysis tool improved efficiency gains by 60% for high-speed I/O design.
Intel has previously experimented with the augmented intelligence tool on theMeteor Lakefamily of processors, with theLunar Lakeseriesnext in line. It will undoubtedly provide a boost toIntel’s expansion in the market for AI PCs!
