Microsoft plans to unveil new Maia 300 AI chip in September, The Information reports
Microsoft is set to reveal its upcoming Maia 300 AI chip in September, according to a report by The Information. The chip, which was first introduced by the tech giant in November 2023, has been lagging behind its competitors in scaling up production. In an effort to reduce its dependence on Nvidia's expensive processors, Microsoft is in discussions with chipmaker TSMC for manufacturing capacity.
The company aims to manufacture over 300,000 units of the chip, with delivery scheduled for 2027. Microsoft is seeking to boost production and encourage major cloud customers like Anthropic to adopt the new chip. However, Microsoft has not yet commented on the report.
