The explosive growth of artificial intelligence has created unprecedented demand for high-performance computing chips, with Nvidia dominating the industry through its GPU architecture. But Google is now accelerating its challenge to Nvidia by pushing its own AI-optimized processors—Tensor Processing Units (TPUs)—into the mainstream market. After years of keeping TPUs primarily inside Google Cloud, the company has begun pitching them directly to major players like Meta and global financial institutions for use in their own data centers. This signals a major shift in AI infrastructure strategy and hints at a new competitive era in which Google and Nvidia battle for leadership in the core hardware that powers the AI revolution.
