At the event, Synopsys announced a partnership with OpenAI to develop GPT-Synopsys, described as a specialized model for chip design combining OpenAI's AI technology with Synopsys's electronic design automation tools. The company also disclosed a multi-year IP agreement with Amazon for custom silicon collaboration.
