Chip race: Microsoft, Meta, Google, and Nvidia battle it out for AI chip supremacy
0 7 min 11 mins

The rise of generative AI has been powered by Nvidia and its advanced GPUs. As demand far outstrips supply, the H100 has become highly sought after and extremely expensive, making Nvidia a trillion-dollar company for the first time.

It’s also prompting customers, like Microsoft, Meta, OpenAI, Amazon, and Google to start working on their own AI processors. Meanwhile, Nvidia and other chip makers like AMD and Intel are now locked in an arms race to release newer, more efficient, and more powerful AI chips.

As demand for generative AI services continues to grow, it’s evident that chips will be the next big battleground for AI supremacy.
