NVIDIA plans to make AI servers in America with help from TSMC and other partners. The tech giant announced it will use over a million square feet of manufacturing space in Arizona to produce its Blackwell chips, marking a major shift in where these advanced components are made.
CEO Jensen Huang said building AI infrastructure in the United States helps meet growing demand and strengthens the supply chain. The company confirmed that Blackwell chips are already being manufactured at TSMC's Arizona facility. NVIDIA has also started building supercomputer plants in Texas, with Foxconn and Wistron working on projects in other states.
Mass production could start within 12-15 months. The company aims to produce up to half a trillion dollars' worth of AI infrastructure in America over the next four years. This announcement follows a meeting between former President Trump and Huang, during which the administration decided against banning NVIDIA's H20 AI accelerators.
The arrangement appears beneficial for both sides. Moving production from Taiwan and China to America is complex, but NVIDIA's partners seem committed to the change. This suggests the United States might become the next major hub for AI hardware manufacturing.
