Shares of GSI Technology skyrocketed after new research found that its associative processing unit chips matched GPU-level performance for large-scale AI applications at a fraction of the energy cost.
The stock more than tripled to $16.13 in midday Monday trading, and has quintupled so far this year.
The company said the study found that its APU delivered over 98% lower energy consumption than a GPU over various datasets and delivered comparable throughput to Nvidia's A6000 GPU.
The APU uses compute-in-memory architectures, which are intended to reduce the time and energy spent moving data between processors and memory. "Compute-in-memory has the potential to disrupt the $100 billion AI inference market," said Lee-Lean Shu, GSI chief executive.
