Etched
Etched is a semiconductor startup building Sohu, a transformer-specific ASIC and rack-scale server system purpose-built for large language model inference. By hard-coding the transformer architecture into silicon, Etched targets dramatically higher throughput and lower cost per token than general-purpose GPU-based inference hardware.
