After using AI to develop risc-v CPU cores, the same technique was used for developing openTPU. An open source AI inference engine. It's able to run most of the modern models like Qwen 3.5, Gemma 4, and many others. The TPU started able to produce only a few tokens per second and trough a recursive self improvement loop got to 80+ tok/sec on the smallers models.
