美国奇点计算公司（Singular Computing）近日向法院提起诉讼，指控谷歌公司侵犯其 AI 处理器专利，要求赔偿16.7亿美元。该公司计算机科学家约瑟夫·贝茨（Joseph Bates）表示，谷歌抄袭了他的技术，并将其应用于人工智能开发。
据贝茨律师团队透露，2010年至2014年期间，谷歌与贝茨曾就合作前景进行过探讨，贝茨向谷歌介绍过他的人工智能支持芯片及其在驱动人工智能处理方面的潜力。然而，谷歌并未履行合作承诺，反而抄袭了贝茨的创新成果，将其应用于开发张量处理单元（TPU），进而用于谷歌翻译、谷歌搜索、Gmail 和其他服务。
针对这一指控，谷歌方面尚未作出公开回应。此次诉讼案件仍在法院审理中。

英文新闻内容：
Singular Computing, a US-based company, has recently filed a lawsuit against Google, accusing the tech giant of infringing on its AI processor patent and seeking $1.67 billion in damages. The company’s computer scientist, Joseph Bates, claims that Google copied his technology and applied it to AI development.
According to Bates’ legal team, Google and Bates had discussed potential collaboration from 2010 to 2014, during which Bates introduced his AI-supported chip and its potential for driving AI processing. However, Google failed to fulfill the cooperation commitment and instead copied Bates’ innovative achievements, applying them to the development of Tensor Processing Units (TPUs), which are used in various Google services such as Google Translate, Google Search, and Gmail.
No public response has been made by Google regarding this accusation. The legal proceedings are ongoing.
