Taiwan-based AI server maker Wiwynn is accelerating its global expansion as surging demand for AI infrastructure creates mounting pressure on power supply, production capacity, and critical component availability.
When AMD CEO Lisa Su arrived in Taiwan on May 20, she announced plans to invest more than US$10 billion with local supply-chain partners and the island's broader semiconductor ecosystem. The goal, she said, was to help secure a long-term supply of advanced artificial intelligence (AI) chips.
Following the conclusion of the Trump-Xi meeting and amid continued delays in China approving imports of Nvidia H20 GPUs, China's National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) on May 22 sent a strong policy signal on artificial intelligence (AI) self-sufficiency, explicitly calling for greater efforts to pair domestic large language models with domestically developed computing chips.
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang is pushing the company deeper into the CPU market, betting that the rise of agentic AI will create a new growth engine beyond the GPUs that made Nvidia the dominant supplier of AI computing hardware.
According to several people familiar with the matter, Contemporary Amperex Technology Limited (CATL), the world's largest maker of electric-vehicle (EV) batteries, is in talks to participate in a major financing round for the Chinese artificial intelligence (AI) start-up DeepSeek. The prospective investment highlights how China's AI boom is forging new alliances among technology firms, industrial companies, and energy providers, all competing to build the infrastructure required for the next generation of computing.
