📰 OpenAI is advancing the development of its own chips, while also expanding its collaboration with Samsung Electronics—from enterprise AI services further into the semiconductor sector. Harrison Kim, Managing Director of OpenAI Korea, said that one of the directions the two sides are currently pursuing a great deal and that has garnered high levels of recognition is joint production and R&D of next-generation chips.
🔥 What’s interesting about this is that OpenAI is no longer just purchasing off-the-shelf computing power; it’s starting to get more deeply involved in chip R&D and production. As for the specific chip models, the scale of the collaboration, and the timeline, no further details were provided on site.
👀 Samsung Electronics’ response has been fairly cautious. It said it cannot confirm information related to customers. So for now, what can be confirmed is that OpenAI has publicly mentioned joint production and R&D, while Samsung has not yet given a positive confirmation.
💡 Harrison Kim also noted that as more advanced chips are used for faster, more complex computing tasks, demand for memory chips will continue to grow. That’s precisely why partnering with Korean semiconductor suppliers has become a priority for OpenAI’s Korea office.
To be honest, the growth in OpenAI’s enterprise users in Korea is pretty astonishing. By the end of August, the number of ChatGPT Enterprise users among Korean enterprises and organizations had increased by about 27 times compared with a year earlier. By the end of last year, Korea was still the country with the most paid ChatGPT subscriptions outside of the United States.
🤔 Will this partnership ultimately result in specific chip products? Do you think Samsung will officially confirm it?
