Samsung expects global chip industry revenue to grow to $778 billion by 2028, boosted by AI chips, Choi said. Samsung is one of the few companies that sells memory chips, offers foundry services and designs chips under the same roof. GAA is seen as important to keep making more powerful chips for AI as chips become finer to the point of pushing the boundaries of physics. Although competitors such as global foundry No 1 TSMC are also working on chips using GAA, Samsung started applying GAA earlier, and said it plans to mass produce its second-generation 3-nanometer chips using GAA in the second half of this year. Samsung also announced its latest 2-nanometer chipmaking process for high-performance computing chips, which places power rails on the backside of the wafer to improve power delivery.
