Samsung Electronics said its contract manufacturing business plans to offer a one-stop shop for clients to get their artificial intelligence (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%, 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 of the foundry business, at a Samsung event in San Jose, California. Samsung expects global chip industry revenue to grow to $778 billion by 2028, boosted by AI chips, Choi said. At a briefing with reporters ahead of the event, Executive Vice President of Foundry Sales and Marketing Marco Chisari said the company believes OpenAI CEO Sam Altman’s loose projections on soaring demand for AI chips are realistic. Altman has told executives at contract chipmaker TSMC that he wanted to build roughly three dozen new chip factories, Reuters has previously reported.
