Also : create proprietary locked down eda->no data to train models->models suck at it->reach out to ai lab to rl on it -> expect users to pay for eda and the model.
GPT-Synopsys brings together OpenAI frontier models with Synopsys' EDA technology and domain expertise, enabling the specialized model [to] directly operate Synopsys' tools. Engineers will delegate design objectives … with agents running tools, interpreting results, implementing changes, and iterating toward verified outcomes for engineer review.
“Agents will do all the engineering work. Engineers will delegate and review.” Lol, no, what the engineers are gonna do is get laid off.
We just buried an ASIC design that was nearly finished.
Reason: There was a deviation that would've needed a mask change, but because of AI chip demand, the manufacturer wanted so much money for it, that we said screw it.
So we now have AI powered chip design tools that make chip design cheaper, but because of AI, chip manufacturing has become so expensive, that we can't afford it anymore.

Most of them anyway, and the cutoff bar will continue to rise.
Give us more open source EDA tools, not more hyped up EDA vendors.
„The joint service offering will provide the bundled compute, model, and licenses, while ensuring customer-specific design data is protected.“
I am not sure if Nvidia want to send their chip designs to OpenAI.
its like a fox starting a chicken coop business

Nice.
AI didn’t make chip manufacturing more expensive
Manufacturers choosing not to scale with demand or not being able to scale with demand
Is what constrained the supply.
Hopefully will be fixed within a decade , then it’s cool new stuff all the way.
Something like JLCPCB but for chips would be revolutionary.
Can't wait for vibe coded SoCs.
Astra is amazing with open PDKs. ;)
Prompt injection in hardware! What could possibly go wrong?
