# Google TPUs now serve AI in production at Meta

*2026-10-22 · Source: [Tom's Hardware](https://www.tomshardware.com/tech-industry/artificial-intelligence/googles-tpus-for-ai-workloads-now-run-in-at-metas-data-centers-tpus-sold-to-external-customers-for-the-first-time-threaten-nvidias-market-dominance)*

Google's TPUs now run production AI workloads in Meta's data centers. New open-source engines let PyTorch models run natively on the chips.

**Why it matters:** Meta, a major Nvidia customer and PyTorch's steward, running on TPUs is a significant crack in Nvidia's dominance. It fits a wider push, with Google's tooling to move PyTorch off Nvidia, Amazon's TorchNeuron and AMD/Intel PyTorch work, to make PyTorch hardware-portable. Lower switching costs should increase buyers' leverage on chip pricing.

**Topics:** chips, infrastructure
