Google Developing "Frozen v2" Next-Gen AI Chip with Up to 10x Efficiency Gain

15    2026-07-22

According to an exclusive July 20 report from The Information, Google is developing a next-generation server AI chip codenamed "Frozen v2" that hardens core Gemini model computing architectures directly into hardware, drastically cutting inference costs by reducing runtime decisions and data movement. Sources reveal the chip will deliver 6 to 10 times better energy efficiency than Google's current most powerful custom AI chips, with deployment targeted as early as 2028. Following the report, Alphabet shares rose as much as 3.7% intraday. Industry observers note this signals AI competition among tech giants has expanded from model algorithms to full-stack infrastructure rivalry.
