Microsoft plans to unveil new Maia 300 AI chip in September, The Information reports
Microsoft is set to unveil its new AI chip, the Maia 300, in September, according to The Information. The chip was first introduced in November 2023, but Microsoft has been struggling to scale up production to reduce its dependence on Nvidia's expensive processors. The company has been engaging in discussions with chipmaker TSMC to secure manufacturing capacity for over 300,000 units, with delivery expected in 2027.
Microsoft aims to boost production and convince major cloud customers like Anthropic to use the chip. However, Microsoft did not immediately respond to requests for comment. TSMC also declined to comment outside regular business hours.
