Washington (AFP) - The US government said Friday it has signed a preliminary agreement with semiconductor manufacturer Texas Instruments to give the company up to $1.6 billion to help fund new facilities in the country. The proposed direct funding comes under the CHIPS and Science Act, a package of incentives passed by Congress in 2022 to boost research and US semiconductor production. The money would give a boost to TI's planned investment of more than $18 billion through the end of the decade to build three new facilities, the Commerce Department said in a statement. Two of them will be in T...

Taipei (AFP) - US chip titan Intel on Tuesday struck a defiant tone in the face of strong challenges from rivals Nvidia, AMD and Qualcomm, unveiling technologies it said would lead the artificial intelligence revolution. For decades, Intel has dominated the market for the chips that run everything from laptops to data centres. But in recent years, its competitors, especially Nvidia, have soared ahead on specialised AI processors. During a keynote speech at Taiwan's Computex expo, CEO Pat Gelsinger introduced Intel's latest Xeon 6 processors for servers, and shared more details about its next-g...

Washington (AFP) - The United States has revoked some export licenses that allowed companies such as US chip firm Qualcomm to supply Chinese tech giant Huawei, the Commerce Department confirmed on Wednesday. The move adds pressure on Huawei, which has long been caught in an intense technological rivalry between Beijing and Washington over US fears it could be used for Chinese espionage operations. It came after Republican lawmakers urged President Joe Biden's administration to block all export licenses to the company following the release of a new computer powered by a chipset by US chip giant...

Washington (AFP) - The United States has revoked certain licenses for exports to Chinese tech giant Huawei, the Commerce Department said, drawing opposition from Beijing on Wednesday. The move came after criticism last month by Republican lawmakers, who urged President Joe Biden's administration to block all export licenses to the company after it released a new laptop powered by a processor by US chip giant Intel. "We continuously assess how our controls can best protect our national security and foreign policy interests, taking into consideration a constantly changing threat environment and ...

Washington (AFP) - The United States announced on Monday grants of up to $6.4 billion to South Korean semiconductor giant Samsung to produce cutting-edge chips in Texas. The award is the latest from the US government as it looks to cement its lead in the chip industry -- especially for chips needed for the development of AI -- both on national security grounds and also in the face of competition with China. President Joe Biden's administration has previously approved billions in grants to US titan Intel and Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) as it tries to avoid the prospect of ...

San José (United States) (AFP) - Nvidia chief Jensen Huang said Tuesday he does not expect a "doomsday scenario" but is readying for the worst over tension between China and the United States. The United States last year tightened export controls on technology from Nvidia and other chip companies to keep it out of the hands of the Chinese military. And anti-China sentiment seems a rare unifying theme in a politically divided US Congress, with legislation aimed at curbing Chinese-owned TikTok. "I do have confidence that the goal of the nations is not adversarial," Jensen said when asked by AFP ...
