Nvidia Promises Japan AI Support Amidst Heavy Demand

Nvidia chief executive Jensen Huang says company will try to prioritise Japan AI requirements amidst heavy worldwide demand.
Nvidia chief executive Jensen Huang said the company would do its best to prioritise Japan for artificial intelligence chips as the country makes efforts to bolster its capabilities in the field amidst surging worldwide demand.
Nvidia is also working with Japan-based companies such as SoftBank to push forward with the development of generative AI research.
Nvidia's graphics processing units lead the market for AI development, a fact that has caused Nvidia's sales and share price to soar over the past year.
Japan has been rushing to rebuild its once world-leading semiconductor industry at a time when tensions between the US and China, amongst other factors, are prompting a reorganisation of the global chip supply chain.
Japan led the world in semiconductors in the 1980s until it was hobbled by strategic moves by the US in the latter part of the decade.
The lead in the field then shifted back to the US in the early 1990s before moving to South Korean firms such as Samsung Electronics and Taiwanese chip makers such as Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. GPU production.
Japan recently passed an extra budget that included about 2 trillion yen in funding for chip investment and manufacturing.
The Japanese budget includes support for a third TSMC factory in the country that is to focus on making high-end AI chips.
It is also expected to support chip foundry venture Rapidus, which intends to manufacture high-end chips in Japan's northern island of Hokkaido.
