===== ⚠️ But: they are not the same “Zebra” =====
* The “Zebra AI” from Mipsology is a software inference/optimization product, primarily for image/video networks and inference on FPGAs/adaptive chips (“Zebra” is the product name).

* The “Zebra-Llama” is a specific hybrid LLM family created by AMD’s AI research group; it uses “Zebra” in the naming (likely referencing “stripe pattern / hybrid / efficient”) but it’s unrelated in concept to Mipsology’s “Zebra AI” product.
* There’s no public statement linking the Mipsology “Zebra AI” product directly to the “Zebra-Llama” LLM research (i.e., the same team, codebase, or product lineage).
* The Mipsology acquisition is about inference/optimization software stack; Zebra-Llama is about model architecture/training efficiency. Different layers of the stack.
