The AI industry is experiencing growing compute demands every day, and firms like NVIDIA and AMD are struggling to keep up with the requirements from Big Tech, at least for now. At the same time, companies like Amazon, Google, and OpenAI are pursuing custom AI silicon to ensure they remain less reliant on GPU manufacturers and scale up their AI computing capabilities. There's a thesis that ASICs pose a threat to the dominance of companies like NVIDIA , but for TSMC, this aspect isn't
