About FuriosaAI
FuriosaAI designs chips for running trained AI models, a task called inference, mainly in data centres. Its second-generation RNGD chip is built on a Tensor Contraction Processor architecture, which treats tensor contraction, the core multiply-and-sum operation behind neural networks, as the basic unit of work instead of breaking it into smaller matrix operations. RNGD is made on TSMC's 5 nanometre process, uses two HBM3 memory stacks and is rated at 512 INT8 TOPS. The company was founded in 2017 by June Paik, a former AMD and Samsung engineer.
FuriosaAI was founded in 2017 and is based in Seoul, South Korea. It is listed under AI Accelerators. Reported funding is $246M.

AI Accelerators
An AI accelerator is a chip, or a part of a chip, designed to run machine learning faster or with less energy than a general-purpose processor. The category includes GPUs, TPUs, neural processing units (NPUs) and chips from many startups.
