TSMC is not the only foundry raising prices. Hopefully Samsung gets on board and kicks their deep discounting habit. AI will generate trillions of dollars in revenue and cost savings so why not get a bigger piece of the pie? Silicon is where AI begins!
Taiwan’s Economic Daily News reported that...
Google has been using ASIC providers since day one.
Two questions: Why don't they just do it themselves? Why would Google switch providers after working with AVGO for so many years?
IP was a big reason why companies chose ASIC providers. Avago used to have the best Serdes so Google worked...

Elon Musk's expanding semiconductor strategy drew fresh attention this week as TSMC CEO C.C. Wei publicly addressed the competitive dynamics posed by Tesla and Intel during the chipmaker's first-quarter 2026 earnings call on Thursday...
I really do think we will look back on this whole thing and laugh ourselves silly.
But moving forward, Lip-Bu and Intel can certainly make Elon's dream come true but on a much smaller scale. No matter what, Elon will need TSMC and probably Samsung to be successful otherwise it will be an...
