Google to test AI chips in orbit under Project Suncatcher
Google plans to test its AI chips aboard satellites in orbit under a project called Suncatcher, according to a report in The Daily Star. The initiative suggests the company is exploring whether space-based hardware could help run artificial intelligence workloads. Details on timing, partners and the scale of the orbital tests have not yet been made clear.
Why now: The prospect of moving AI computing infrastructure into space is a novel and consequential development for the semiconductor and cloud industries.
