OpenAI’s Jalapeño AI chips are deployed with AMD EPYC ‘Turin’ host CPUs

AMD says OpenAI chose EPYC “Turin” CPUs to host its Jalapeño AI chips, citing platform strength, partner experience and reducing unnecessary risk. Tom’s Hardware describes the chips as deployed alongside those CPUs. It quotes OpenAI hardware VP Robert Ho calling the choice “pragmatic” and saying Nvidia’s standalone Vera is “a little bit behind… on that maturity level.”
