Samsung's Plans to Dominate the AI Industry with GPU Investment

TapTechNews June 21st news, according to Naver's report, the survey results of the corporate governance report show that Samsung is planning to invest heavily in the GPU field, aiming to achieve autonomy in this field in order to take a dominant position in the AI industry. The report shows that Samsung plans to use the GPU for internal services rather than for sale on the market.

Although the report does not specify Samsung's specific plans, the company submitted the 'GPU investment proposal' to the senior management at the board of directors a few months ago, and those present at the meeting included Han Jong-hee, the head of the Device Experience (DX) department, and several presidents of related departments.

As far as TapTechNews currently knows, Samsung's S.LSI business unit is responsible for manufacturing the GPU in Exynos chips, which use the AMD RDNA architecture.

Samsung is trying to work with Nvidia to build the world's first automated semiconductor factory, with the goal of creating a 'digital twin' centered around AI. Considering the development speed of the semiconductor industry, Samsung's GPU investment will definitely generate benefits and improve infrastructure in the future, thereby achieving a higher data utilization ability.

Samsung also released the revolutionary SF2Z and SF4U process nodes last week, which are Samsung's most efficient semiconductor processes, aiming to meet the needs of the artificial intelligence market, indicating that Samsung indeed regards AI as an important field for its market expansion.
