This has renewed focus on China's homegrown efforts to rival Nvidia and create semiconductors that can underpin the world's second-largest economy's own AI industry. Huawei then sells these chips as a part of servers that go into data centers to train AI models. Alibaba and BaiduAlibaba and Baidu both buy Nvidia chips but they are also designing their own semiconductors for AI processes. Inference is the process that follows the training of AI models, as it refers to the actual application of AI in the real world, such as a chatbot responding to user queries.

☆ Jensen Huang says if 'anything were to happen' in Taiwan, Nvidia could have GPUs made somewhere else

When Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang spoke to Goldman Sachs CEO David Solomon on Wednesday, the banker raised this relationship — and how precarious it is due to rising tension in the Taiwan Strait. This story is available exclusively to Business Insider subscribers. Last year, Huang said he felt "perfectly safe" relying on manufacturing in Taiwan. Though Samsung has some of the same capabilities required to produce the most advanced chips, TSMC is the clear leader. Huang went on to praise TSMC for scaling up to meet the demand that created Nvidia's "hockey stick" earnings in recent years.

As AI shifts from data centers — an Nvidia "stronghold" — to the " edge ," investors should "start looking at companies like Qualcomm," Khodjamirian said. And "edge AI" is more than about chips — "it's really everything, the silicon content of our mobile phones and PCs, has to go up, because you need better memory; you need better connectivity between the different semiconductors. Qualcomm's shares are currently trading at around 15.3 times forward earnings, while Nvidia has a multiple of around 38, according to FactSet data.

☆ Wall Street is turning less bullish on tech darling ASML for several key reasons

Analysts at major Wall Street banks are getting more cautious on chip darling ASML , raising concerns about the critical chip equipment maker's demand outlook. Earlier this week, investment bank UBS downgraded ASML to "neutral" and cut its price target on the stock to 900 euros ($1,000.78) from 1,050 euros previously. Other Wall Street banks have subsequently come out with their own respective analyses on ASML — and they're more downbeat than they were before. The bank remains bullish on the stock, though, keeping ASML in its top pick for EU semiconductor equipment stocks. UBS cautioned ASML's machines could face a slowdown in demand due to an "architecture shift" to gate all around architecture, or GAA.

An icon of ASML is displayed on a smartphone, with an ASML chip visible in the background. The Dutch government on Friday announced it is expanding export restrictions on advanced semiconductor manufacturing equipment, bringing licensing requirements of ASML 's machines under its purview. The changes mean that the Netherlands is effectively taking over from the U.S. on controlling what machines ASML is able to export to other countries. The expanded control comes after the Dutch government last year introduced its first major export restrictions on advanced semiconductor equipment exports. Washington has pressured countries like the Netherlands and others to ramp up export curbs on key chipmaking tools.

At the end of [the] 1980s, Japanese companies accounted for like 51% of the global semiconductor market. So by doing this ... one thing undercut Japanese semiconductor chip makers' competitiveness in the global market. Another thing [is] that [it] forced open [the] Japanese semiconductor market to foreign players, and this creates opportunity for the U.S., South Korea and Taiwan. And Japanese companies are trying to both develop their own capacity but also attract phone companies to establish fabs there. So by collaborating with international companies, Japanese companies can leverage their existing technology and manufacturing techniques to expand their global share as well.

According to an S&P Global analysis, the global semiconductor industry consumed as much water in 2021 as the city of Hong Kong. Water consumption for chip fabs and data centers will rise as the demand for chips grows. The chip fabs stored the TCE underground, but tanks sometimes ruptured, leaking the chemical into the local groundwater and soil. Now, chip fabs must work with local governments to meet water management and waste disposal requirements. Several researchers are investigating ways to reduce and recycle water in chip manufacturing.
