Ziroh Labs, an artificial intelligence startup that operates in India, collaborated with researchers from the country’s main technology school to design an affordable system that, according to him, can be great There models without demanding advanced computing chips from artists such as Nvidia.
The company’s structure, called Komoma AI, was developed in partnership with the Indian Institute of Technology, Madras. Ziroh Labs said the platform allows AI to be executed in the Central Processing Units (CPUs) found in everyday computing devices, as opposed to the coveted Graphic Processing Units (GPUs) that were the point of view of the artificial intelligence boom.
A growing number of AI developers released efficiency gains that allowed them to use less chips in the months following the viral success of China’s Deepseekwhich allegedly built a competitive AI model for a fraction of the cost of your US colleagues. Ziroh Labs’s approach is mainly concentrated in the inference process or the operation of AI systems after being trained.
Ziroh Labs said it can optimize major AI models to run on personal computers. At a demonstration event this week, the researchers team showed their product working on a laptop that uses an Intel Xeon processor purchased on shelf and consultation models, such as Goal Llama 2 of the platforms and Alibaba Holding group qwen2.5.
Other technology companies also used CPUs to deal with some inference workloads. Ziroh Labs said his approach leads to high quality results. The startup said its technology was tested by US chipmakers Intel and Micro Advanced Devices.
“This will have a very deep impact on the market in the coming years,” said William Raduchel, former Sun Microsystems strategy director and startup technology consultant who spoke virtually at the event.
As in other countries, India developers have fought to pay and get access to first -rate Nvidia chips to help build and support AI products. GPUS scarcity is in danger of hindering the speed and scale of local AI research and deployment.
“The division of AI is because only those with expensive high quality GPU features can access, develop and deploy AI powerful,” said V. Kamakoti, director of the Indian Institute of Technology, Madras. “We are demonstrating that you don’t need a revolver to kill a mosquito.”
