Ricursive Intelligence, a startup developing AI capable of designing chips, is set to showcase its progress at TechCrunch Disrupt 2026. Co-founders Anna Goldie and Azalia Mirhoseini will discuss the potential for AI to accelerate hardware development, with the goal of reducing chip design cycles from years to weeks. The pair previously co-led AlphaChip at Google, an AI system that could generate chip layouts in hours.
Ricursive Intelligence aims to build self-improving systems that can learn from creating different chips, creating a loop where AI helps design better hardware, which in turn supports more powerful AI. This session, part of Disrupt's six industry stages, will provide insights into the technology, bottlenecks, and self-improving systems behind Ricersive's innovative approach.
With AI models rapidly advancing, the hardware that supports them must keep pace, and Ricursive believes AI can help bridge the gap between AI development and hardware creation.
