Founder here!

We're still in stealth, but I'll be able to share details and performance figures soon.

Our first product is a bet on transformers. If we're right, there's enormous upside - being transformer-specific lets you get an order of magnitude more compute than more flexible accelerators (GPUs, TPUs).

We're hiring - if the EV makes sense for you, reach out at gavin @ etched.ai

You’re still in stealth but you’re asking us to meet your supercomputer and are sharing benchmarks that are unfalsifiable. Better show and tell a lot more real soon.

You seem to be downvoted because of the lack of details. Upvoted and thanks for commenting.

1. Do you have a working prototype?

2. Are the pictures real (or close), or entirely CGI?

That would win over a lot of people here on HN.

Hey Gavin, I regret how much skepticism you faced here especially from me.

I believe honest feedback is important but that it should be given in the most productive way possible.

I always want to see fellow entrepreneurs succeed here, and will definitely keep an open mind as you release more details. Best of luck!

Very promising, excited to learn more!

Any thoughts on State Space Models?

Curious what approach you’re using. I did some work replicating this paper on an arty7 fpga: https://arxiv.org/abs/2210.08277 - any similarities?

What’s your projected “model to chip” turnaround?
