According to a research note from Fubon, Google plans to deploy between 12 million and 15 million ninth-generation TPUs by 2028.

If those numbers hold, Google's output would be in the same range as Nvidia's projected shipments. Fubon estimates that Nvidia supplied 8.2 million data center GPUs in 2026 and could reach 12.4 million by 2028. That would mark a notable shift, with a single cloud provider producing a volume of AI accelerators comparable to the leading merchant chip supplier.

The TPU v9 will use four compute dies, in line with the industry's shift to multi-die designs, while Google's...

Major sodium-ion battery milestone passed by California startup — Unigrid aces Hyundai’s safety tests down to -20C as experts call tech a 'compelling alternative' to lithium-ion

Lithium-ion batteries are one of the most successful technologies ever invented, and now span everything from smartphones to power stations — but the technology is not without its flaws and limitations, and scientists are now busy trying to figure out which type of next-gen battery will take over next. One of
