Künstliche Intelligenz: AMD will Chip-Produktion kräftig ausweiten
Speicherchips sind derzeit weltweit knapp. Der US-Halbleiterhersteller AMD will die Versorgung sicherstellen und weitet seine Produktion aus.
Taiwanese semiconductor firm Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) is expanding its chip production capacity due to soaring demand, AMD's CEO Lisa Su announced during a press conference in Taipei. Su stated that the company has already increased its offerings for 2026 and plans to significantly raise them in 2027. Su's visit to Taiwan aims to secure manufacturing capacities from Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) and Foxconn.
Additionally, AMD is working closely with South Korean companies Samsung and SK Hynix to ensure a steady supply of memory chips. Su plans to visit South Korea in the coming days. When asked if AMD would participate in the construction of a potential new TSMC factory in Texas, Su did not provide a direct answer, but emphasized the high demand for advanced chips, stating that AMD needs more production capacities for cutting-edge wafers.
The company is planning ahead for three to five years, as it is the second-largest provider of AI high-performance processors after Nvidia. AMD has been experiencing record-breaking results in recent months due to the boom in building data centers for artificial intelligence (AI).
