SAMSUNG Electronics said its contract manufacturing business plans to offer a one-stop shop for clients to get their AI chips made faster, integrating its global No. 1 memory chip, foundry, and chip packaging services, to harness the AI boom.
With clients working with a single channel of communication that directs Samsung’s memory chip, foundry and chip packaging teams at once, the time it takes to produce AI chips – usually weeks – has been cut by around 20 per cent, Samsung said on Wednesday.
“We are truly living in the age of AI – the emergence of generative AI is completely changing the technology landscape,” said Siyoung Choi, President and General Manager, Foundry Business, at a Samsung event in San Jose, California.
Samsung expects global chip industry revenue to grow to US$778 billion by 2028, boosted by AI chips, Choi said. REUTERS
