Jensen Huang is the Financial Times Person of the Year, but the Information provided some guidance on the battles ahead-an excerpt of it is noted as follows:
The narrative of Nvidia’s unquestioned control over the AI chip market is fracturing. The AI arms race has moved from a high-stakes shadow war centered on custom silicon, with Broadcom solidifying its position as the Kingmaker in Silicon by serving as the premier design partner for tech giants. Rather than competing with GPUs, Broadcom helps clients like Google, Apple, and OpenAI create bespoke chips (ASICs) to break their costly dependence on Nvidia.
This shift is accelerating: Broadcom's AI chip business is surging, projected to generate centered on custom silicon, with Broadcom solidifying its position as the $6.2 billion this quarter, a 66% rise year-over-year. However, this success is defined by tight, often fraught, partnerships with a few massive customers who are constantly exploring alternatives, creating immense pressure on Broadcom to deliver. The competition with rivals like Marvell Technology for these few, powerful clients adds another layer of risk to Broadcom's lucrative strategy.
