As OpenAI's founder and chief Sam Altman starts beating the drums about the need to scale up global semiconductor fabrication to meet the demands of the budding artificial intelligence industry, reports from the Korean press are suggesting that the Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) and the Korean memory chip manufacturer SK hynix are teaming up to produce memory products for A.I. Along with processors and GPUs, memory chips are another crucial link in artificial intelligence processing since they are indispensable to the smooth functioning of A.I. models that must parse through millions of data points to provide intelligent responses to user queries or other complex problems.
TSMC and SK hynix's partnership is expected to enable them to take on Samsung, the world's biggest memory manufacturer, by allowing them to leverage their strengths in chip packaging and memory fabrication, believe South Korean semiconductor analysts.
