The move would add Google's tensor processing units (TPUs) to OpenAI's computing resources as demand for chips to train and run AI models surges, according to the report. TPUs have emerged as an alternative to Nvidia's graphics processing units, which dominate the market for AI computing.

OpenAI is also developing its own chips, known as Jalapeno, with Broadcom, aiming to support its AI models later this year. The effort reflects a broader industry push to develop custom silicon and reduce reliance on external suppliers.

The potential purchase comes as Google expands its chip business beyond its own cloud platform.
