AI summary: Chinese scientists have designed an industrial-scale RISC-V CPU using AI in under five hours, a process that is 1000x faster than human-led design. The AI-designed CPU performs comparably to an i486 and was created using machine learning, observing CPU inputs and outputs. The research suggests AI could significantly reduce design and optimization cycles in the semiconductor industry, potentially leading to the development of a self-evolving machine.
