Volantis 完成 8800 万美元 A 轮融资，用光学方案破解 AI 内存瓶颈
RT by @_akhaliq: Excited to announce Volantis's $88M Series A. We are solving Al's memory bottleneck by using optics, enabling chips with huge amounts of fast & cheap memory. By boosting both the memory bandwidth and capacity per chip by orders of magnitude, we enable ultra-fast inference (up to 10,000 tps/user) for large models (>10T) - with low $/tok to boot. Initially, this will enable insanely fast agents - think coding agents that finish in minutes or even seconds instead of hours. More excitingly, optics is a fundamentally scalable way to increase memory systems. Not 2X/year, but by orders of magnitude across new generations. This will enable a structurally new Al industry, including restarting scaling laws, holding entire repos in context windows & more. Our team has pioneered many core semiconductor technologies: the 1st CoWoS product, early HBM, the 1st silicon photonics CPO systems, the 1st high volume tunable VCSELs, the 1st processors to directly communicate using light & m
Volantis 宣布完成 8800 万美元 A 轮融资，用光学技术解决 AI 内存瓶颈，将单芯片内存带宽与容量提升数个数量级，实现大模型（>10T）最高 10,000 tps/user 的超快推理和低 $/tok。该方案初期面向编程智能体，把原本数小时的任务压缩到几分钟甚至几秒，其下一代产品已完成流片，目标刷新相关距离上的带宽密度世界纪录。
