OpenAI unveils its first custom chip, built by Broadcom
On Wednesday, OpenAIunveiledits first custom-built inference processor, designed and manufactured in collaboration with Broadcom. Named Jalapeño, the new processor was designed specifically for the unique needs of OpenAI’s inference systems. OpenAI’s own AI models assisted in the development of the chip, the company said. While the chip is still being tested, OpenAI says early results show significantly better performance-per-watt than current state-of-the-art alternatives. The partnership wasofficially announced in October, but OpenAI’s chip plans havelong been rumoredas a way to reduce the company’s dependence on Nvidia’s GPUs.GoogleandAmazonhave both built custom chips to serve a similar purpose, often called “AI accelerators” — silicon designed specifically to speed up machine learning workloads. OpenAI president Greg Brockman explained the company’s approach to chip developmenton its in-house podcast, shortly after the Broadcom partnership was announced. “We have a deep understanding of the workload,” Brockman said in the episode. “We’ve really been looking for specific workloads that are underserved, [and asking] how can we build something that will be able to accelerate what’s possible?” Jalapeño is specifically designed for inference, the process of running pre-built AI models in response to user commands. In the announcement, OpenAI emphasized the chip’s low operating cost when running real-time coding models. It’s likely that more performance-intensive tasks like pre-training will still rely on Nvidia hardware, but even small reductions in inference costs could do a lot to improve the company’s bottom line. Optimizing that inference system may prove to be a crucial factor in the economics of AI going forward — and it’s likely to take place at every level of the stack. OpenAI is already building agentic products like Codex and the models that power them, as well as data centers to run those models. Moving into purpose-built chips lets the company go even further in that process, as the company explained in its announcement. “OpenAI is not only developing frontier models or building products on top of them; it is designing the infrastructure underneath them: chip architecture, kernels, memory systems, networking, scheduling, deployment systems, and product experience,” the company wrote. “Because OpenAI operates across the stack, each layer can be optimized around the same goal: making its models faster, more reliable, and more affordable for users.”

Figma adds code layers, support for animations, more AI features in new update
Figma on Wednesday showed off an update that adds a new code layer, support for motion and shaders, and the ability to create custom plug-ins for various tasks using AI. The design platform has been working on bringing code integration into its tool for a while. Last year, it unveiled an AI prompt-based prototyping tool, Figma Make, and has since launched integrations withClaude Code and Codexto improve the hand-off between coding and design. The company is now adding code layers directly to the collaborative canvas, helping teams clone repositories and extract flows from code to design layers for testing. Figma’s chief product officer, Yuhki Yamashita, said code layers make it easier for designers, product managers, and programmers to iterate on ideas rather than focus on creating pristine code that goes into production. “We think the multiplayer canvas is really powerful because this is an environment where you don’t really care about the quality of the code. If you’re rapidly exploring or need to kind of explore a bunch of new directions, you can do that in this spatial way. We hope that this feature produces different behavior not just with designers, but also with engineers and PMs,” he said over a call. Figma now also supports animations, transitions, and 3D transforms. Previously, designers had to create animations in other software and convert it to code that the app could understand. Now designers can integrate animations and transitions directly into Figma. You can now use AI to create some of these assets, and the update is adding support for adding shader effects and fills using AI, too. Last year, Figmaacquired node-based tool Weavy, which helped designers run workflows through different models to compare outputs, and is now working to integrate the two apps better. In an update rolling out later in the year, users will be able to generate Weavy workflows directly within Figma. The company’s also adding new skills to makeits AI assistantmore useful with its collaborative canvas. Users can now write text prompts to create repeatable skills that AI agents can use. You can also connect tools like Notion, Granola, Excel, and GitHub, or attach files to give the AI bot more context about what you want it to do. The company is also adding a feature to help users create custom plug-ins, like layout generators or vector path tracers, with prompts.

Agility Robotics plans to go public via SPAC in a $2.5B deal
Agility Robotics, the humanoid robotics startup that spun out of Oregon State University in 2015, plans to go public through a merger with special purpose acquisition company Churchill Capital Corp XI in a deal that values the company at roughly $2.5 billion. The transaction is expected to generate more than $620 million in proceeds, including about $200 million from a group of new and existing institutional investors,the company said. Agility is best known for Digit, a bipedal robot that is being used across nine customer sites, including with Schaeffler, GXO,Toyota Motor Manufacturing Canada, and Mercado Libre. The company has enjoyed backing from high-profile tech companies and funds like Amazon, Nvidia, SoftBank Vision Fund 2, DCVC. Now it plans to use the capital raised in the SPAC merger to increase production capacity of its next-generation Digit v5, fulfill existing orders, and expand to new and existing customers. The company said it has secured more than $300 million in multi-year orders for the new model and a pipeline of more than 30 potential customers evaluating large-scale deployments. “Humanoid robots are poised to become a critical driver of productivity, supply chain resilience, and American technology leadership,” Agility CEO Peggy Johnson said in a statement. “With commercially deployed humanoids already operating in customer environments today, Agility is helping enterprises address labor shortages, improve efficiency, and safely integrate AI-powered automation into their operations.” The combined company is expected to trade under the ticker symbol AGLT on a North American stock exchange that has not yet been announced.

Facebook rolls out an AI companion app for creators
Facebookannouncedon Wednesday that it’s reimagining its Creator Studio tool as a stand-alone AI companion app designed to help creators grow their audiences on the social network. By giving creators access to this AI companion app, Meta is looking to keep creators active on Facebook as it competes for their attention against rivals like TikTok and YouTube. The company also likely hopes that the app will eliminate the need for creators to turn to third-party tools like ChatGPT when brainstorming content ideas and analyzing performance. Thenew app, which is currently being tested with select creators, will have Facebook’s recently launchedAI creator assistantbuilt into it. The assistant provides creators with personalized recommendations based on their content style, performance, audience engagement, and goals. Creators often have to sift through charts and dashboards to understand their performance, but with the AI assistant, they can get quick answers to questions like “When should I post?” and “What are people saying in my comments?” Since the AI assistant is conversational, they can also ask follow-up questions, like how their audience has shifted over time. Beyond the built-in AI assistant, the Creator Studio app will include a set of several new features, such as an AI-powered comment tool that will help surface the most important comments and draft replies in the creator’s own tone. Creators can edit and approve the drafted replies before posting them, Facebook says. When creators open the app each day, they will see a feed of daily priorities: reviewing their newest post’s performance, tracking progress toward goals, and flagging comments in need of a reply. Wednesday’s announcement adds to Meta’s recent wave of app launches. Last month, the company rolled out a stand-alone app for Facebook Groups calledForumthat functions similarly to Reddit. In April, Meta launched anew app called Instantsthat lets users share disappearing photos with Instagram friends. The pipeline keeps growing.The New York Timesreported on Tuesday that Meta isbuilding its own Polymarket-like app, internally called “Arena,” though it has yet to launch. The cadence is deliberate.The Wall Street Journalreported in April that CEO Mark Zuckerberg told employees that AI-driven efficiencies would enable the company to build more apps than it has historically.
