近日,美国奇点计算公司(Singular Computing)起诉谷歌,指控其侵犯了两项AI处理器技术专利,并索赔16.7亿美元。该公司计算机科学家约瑟夫·贝茨(Joseph Bates)声称,谷歌抄袭了他的技术,用于开发张量处理单元(TPU),进而应用于谷歌翻译、谷歌搜索、Gmail等众多服务。
据贝茨的代表律师透露,2010年至2014年间,谷歌与贝茨曾就合作前景进行过讨论,贝茨向他展示了人工智能支持芯片的技术。然而,谷歌却将这一创新成果用于自身的人工智能开发,推出了张量处理单元(TPU)。
此次诉讼中,奇点计算公司要求谷歌对其侵权行为承担责任。目前,此案仍在审理过程中。

News Content:
Singular Computing, an American company, has sued Google for allegedly infringing on two AI processor patents and is seeking $1.67 billion in damages. The company’s computer scientist, Joseph Bates, claims that Google copied his technology to develop tensor processing units (TPUs), which are then used in various services such as Google Translate, Google Search, and Gmail.
According to Bates’ representative lawyer, Google and Bates discussed the prospects of cooperation from 2010 to 2014, during which Bates demonstrated his AI-supported chip technology. However, Google allegedly appropriated this innovative achievement for its own AI development, launching the tensor processing unit (TPU).
In this lawsuit, Singular Computing demands that Google bear responsibility for its infringement. The case is currently under trial.
