AMD's Taalas Deal Bets Inference Is the New Bitcoin Mining

Hardwiring weights into silicon only pays when a workload stops moving. AMD is betting inference just did.

Hardwired weights promise 17,000 tokens a second — if model churn doesn't outrun the mask set.

PhantaField’s Sophon PFG-1 puts 330 GB of DRAM on-die, bypassing the GPU memory wall for low-batch LLMs.

Custom ASICs are replacing general-purpose GPUs for running large language models to survive the crushing cost of scale.

A custom Broadcom-built ASIC for LLM inference puts OpenAI on the same vertical-integration path Google and Amazon paved years ago.

The custom silicon shift signals a move away from general-purpose GPUs toward highly specialized, memory-optimized inference architectures.
