ChipNeMo explores the use of large language models (LLMs) in industrial chip design by employing domain adaptation techniques. The study evaluates the effectiveness of these methods on three specific LLM applications: an engineering assistant chatbot, EDA script generation, and bug summarization and analysis. Results show that domain-adaptive pretraining significantly enhances performance in domain-specific tasks without compromising generic capabilities. The approach involves adapting tokenizers, aligning models with domain-specific instructions, and fine-tuning retrieval models with domain data. The study demonstrates superior performance of ChipNeMo-70B over GPT-4 in certain use cases while maintaining competitive performance in others.
