That continues a trend from 2023, when generative AI companies raised $25.9 billion for the full year, up more than 200% from 2022. The average round for AI companies is 140% bigger this year compared with last, the data shows, while for non-AI companies the increase is only 10%. Most venture investors are bullish on the potential for generative AI to eventually create big returns at the application layer. John-David Lovelock, an analyst at Gartner and a 35-year veteran of the IT industry, sees a big opportunity for generative AI in the enterprise. Yet, in 2024, only 1% of the trillion dollars spent on software will be from businesses spending on generative AI products, he said.

While the chip industry makes efforts to expand the recruiting pool in general so that hiring can be more inclusive, the changes can feel incremental. Related storiesIntel set goals to increase its female senior leadership representation to 25% and technical roles to 40% by 2030.

"SMCI is unable to file its Annual Report within the prescribed time period without unreasonable effort or expense," the company said in a release. Super Micro makes computers that companies use as servers for websites, data storage and other applications, including artificial intelligence algorithms.

Its next-generation Blackwell chip faces delays, raising questions about supply-chain impacts. As Nvidia prepares to report its second-quarter earnings on Wednesday, some of those questions are still relevant, while some have faded away. Efforts by other companies to build competitive AI chips haven't reached more than a simmer, and the rollout of Nvidia's next-generation Blackwell chip is said to be delayed. The analysts also wrote that revenue from existing products, specifically the H200 and H20 AI chips, could offset any delayed revenue from the Blackwell chip.

Intel has sold its 1.18 million share stake in British chip firm Arm Holdings, according to a regulatory filing, as the California chip designer shores up its balance sheet amid intense competition.

Intel had cash and cash equivalents of $11.3 billion, and liabilities of about $32 billion at the end of June, according to its latest financials. Intel and Arm declined to comment on the sale when contacted by CNBC on Wednesday. Japan's SoftBank Group has a majority stake in Arm, and has been a beneficiary of the jump in the company's shares.

The rollout of Nvidia's next-generation of AI chips, Blackwell, is going to be delayed according to media and industry analyst reports. Smaller cloud firms that have built their businesses on Nvidia chips could be affected by the delay too. Each new generation of AI chips promises step changes in computing capacity, speed and efficiency, allowing for faster computations and larger models. Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company, Nvidia's manufacturing partner, is using a relatively new process to manufacture the Blackwell chips. Some Blackwell chips have begun shipping to customers and production will still increase in the second half of the year.

According to public announcements, the firm has made four acquisition deals so far in 2024, exactly even with Nvidia's 2020 deal total. Nvidia declined to discuss its acquisition strategy for this report, citing a quiet period before it announces earnings on August 28. In May, Nvidia agreed to acquire Deci AI, another Israeli startup that makes tools for developers to build AI models, for $300 million. In July Nvidia competitor AMD announced an agreement to acquire Silo AI, a Finnish AI startup, for $655 million. And this quiet trickle of deals in various forms is unlikely to stop since the market for AI talent is so tight.

Adding to the pressure on chip stocks is a global equity sell-off that began in the U.S. and has fed its way through to Asia and Europe.

The U.S. Department of Justice is investigating complaints that Nvidia allegedly abused its market dominance in artificial intelligence chips, The Information reported. The DOJ has reached out to Nvidia's competitors such as AMD to gather information about the complaints, according to the report published on Thursday. Investigators are looking at whether Nvidia charges its customers higher prices for products if that customer wants to buy AI chips from rivals such as AMD, the report said. The DOJ is also looking at whether Nvidia has pressured customers to buy additional products such as cables that connect servers together, The Information reported. Nvidia and the DOJ were not immediately available for comment when contacted by CNBC.

Current interest in artificial intelligence revolves around two key terms — large language models (LLMs) and generative AI. Not all chip firms are benefitting from the boom in artificial intelligence, earnings show, underscoring the complexities of the semiconductor supply chain and dominance of some companies over others in different parts of the sector. But Nvidia's rival AMD has brought its own chip to market, called the MI300X AI chip, for AI purposes and is beginning to see the rewards. Chip manufacturing and tool companies appear to be benefitting too from the boom in AI.
