LG Electronics Inc. shares advanced in Seoul after a local media report that the company is developing cutting-edge tools for making the memory chips that work alongside AI processors designed by Nvidia Corp.

Broadcom’s chip division rolled out a new networking processor on Tuesday, designed to turbocharge artificial intelligence workloads that demand tight coordination among hundreds of compute units. The announcement marks another salvo in its tussle with AI chip-making leader,

Cognichip’s approach is to develop a physics-informed foundation model that achieves more parallelism than is available in existing development flows so that some of the margin can be removed from designs. “We’re very happy using today’s abstractions, but we need to manipulate them at a much higher bandwidth,” Diamantidis said.

Nvidia is now the first company to surge past $4 trillion in market capitalization, rebounding from its DeepSeek-induced slump earlier this year. Other AI chipmakers, including AMD and China’s Huawei, are reporting strong financial results. Nearly every major chipmaker is now centering its strategy on AI. But what if AI doesn’t work out?

Nvidia is the dominant player in AI infrastructure, but its size could limit some of its upside. AMD and Broadcom, meanwhile, have huge opportunities. Given their smaller sizes, the stocks have the potential to outperform Nvidia in the coming years.

Data center operators in China, which use Nvidia’s H20 chips to crunch data for various AI services, have been struggling to find a local alternative that is as good as the U.S. company’s chips.

Innovations in assistive AI and, ultimately, increased autonomy with agentic AI will redefine what engineers can achieve within the chip design cycle.

Amazon has halted the development of its Inferentia AI chip to focus on its Trainium chip, aiming to enhance cost performance and challenge Nvidia's dominance in the AI chip market, with plans to ...
