The negativity doesn’t make much sense. The specs are strong, and the chip already taped out in October that’s a concrete milestone, not vaporware. Hardware of this class always takes months between tape-out and dev boards. Official announcement: https://vsora.com/vsora-announces-tape-out-of-game-changing-...

Multiple independent sources confirmed the tape-out: EE Times: https://www.eetimes.eu/vsora-tapes-out-ai-inference-chip-for...

There’s also an industrial manufacturing partnership with GUC: https://www.design-reuse.com/news/202529700-vsora-and-guc-pa...

Strategically, having a European AI inference chip matters. The US has already threatened export limits to Europe, and China has shown similar behavior (e.g., Nexperia). Building local supply is important.

Calling this vaporware makes no sense: tape-out + published roadmap = real, not slides.
