RicursiveAI co-founders Anna Goldie and Azalia Mirhoseini presented an approach to using AI for designing, optimizing, and automating semiconductor chips at Sequoia AI Ascent 2026

Chips are the fuel for AI. By using AI to design, optimize, and automate chip design, we can close the recursive self-improving loop between AI and its physical substrate. Our co-founders @annadgoldie and @Azaliamirh took the stage at @sequoia AI Ascent 2026 to share more about Ricursive’s vision to accelerate and democratize chip design. Proud of the progress our world-class team has already made. And we’re just getting started!
