Samsung has reportedly swapped out its homemade OLED panels in some mid-range models for the Chinese CSOT-made OLEDs, aiming to reduce overall costs and avoid raising consumer prices.

Qualcomm is helping address one of the auto industry's most pressing needs - scaling intelligent vehicle technology to meet growing consumer demand for vehicles that are automated, connected and highly personalised.

The ministry is coordinating with other ministries and agencies to finalise and submit to the Prime Minister the Memorandum of Understanding between the Government of Vietnam and Samsung Group regarding the group's semiconductor manufacturing project in Vietnam.

Our custom accelerator business is progressing very well across five customers. Anthropic will soon implement one gigawatt of Broadcom-baked TPUs, and we expect the AI company plans a three-gigawatt deployment in 2027. Meta will install multiple gigawatts of Broadcom's XPU accelerators in 2027 and beyond. OpenAI will deploy over one gigawatt of compute capacity based on custom XPUs in 2027.

The gold rush across the high-end processor market might help Apple's processor manufacturing partner, TSMC, drive harder bargains than in the past. That's because Apple's huge appetite for processors is being met by fast-growing demand for chips for servers. As a result, the cost of the chips used inside Macs, iPads, and iPhones will likely increase, putting even more inflationary pressure on Cupertino's bottom line.

Instead of paralyzing China's AI sector, these controls have promoted domestic self-reliance. With no choice but to develop indigenous workarounds and architectural innovations, Chinese businesses are decoupling AI progress from sheer hardware volume. U.S. policies have undoubtedly bought time, but they have also ushered in a parallel innovation ecosystem totally independent of Western influence.
