April 15Apr 15 16 hours ago, lynched1 said:Spurred on by President Trump’s tariffs and a focus on returning to U.S.-based manufacturing, NVIDIA has announced that, for the first time, the company’s AI supercomputers will be built entirely in the U.S.Yup, because that's how the real world works. A company can decide overnight to just start mass producing billions of dollars worth of product on a whim in response to a temporary tariff situation. Totally not something that requires long term planning that has been in the works for years. Oh wait.....https://www.tsmc.com/static/abouttsmcaz/index.htmIn a historic announcement, in May 2020, TSMC shared its plans to invest $12B in Phoenix, Arizona – building an advanced semiconductor manufacturing fabrication. In December 2022, the company announced its commitment to build a second fab in Phoenix, increasing its total investment to $40B. Then in April 2024, the U.S. Department of Commerce and TSMC Arizona announced up to US$6.6 billion in direct funding under the CHIPS and Science Act, fulfilling a goal to bring the most advanced chip manufacturing in the world to the United States. TSMC also announced plans to build a third fab at TSMC Arizona. This third fab brings TSMC’s total U.S. investment to more than $65 billion, making this the largest foreign direct investment (FDI) in Arizona history, and the largest FDI in a greenfield project in U.S. history. Now with a third fab, TSMC Arizona will create approximately 6,000 jobs – and more than 20,000 accumulated unique construction jobs, as well as tens of thousands of indirect supplier jobs.https://www.pcmag.com/news/tsmc-may-produce-nvidia-blackwell-ai-chips-in-arizonaNvidia may see at least part of its Blackwell AI GPUs made in Arizona at Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Corp's first Arizona plant, which is slated to begin production for clients in 2025.Because the Blackwell design uses an improved version of TSMC's 4-nanometer process and TSMC already makes other chips for Nvidia, it's less of a question as to who might produce the chips, but rather where they will be made. Nvidia and TSMC have been discussing the Arizona deal, and while not yet finalized, TSMC is already preparing to start production on the chips in the US. That's according to a report from Reuters published on Thursday, citing two anonymous sources. Nvidia declined to comment on the report.TSMC won't be able to produce the entire Blackwell GPU in the US, however. The chips will have to be sent to Taiwan for the packaging process because the Arizona location won't have TSMC's "chip wafer on substrate," or CoWoS, which the chips require, according to the report.Apple and AMD will also be customers at the new TSMC Arizona plant, which is located in the northwest Phoenix area between Anthem and Deer Valley. TSMC's website states that this first Arizona plant will open in the "first half" of 2025. Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang visited the construction site when work began back in 2022 and spoke during an event there celebrating the start of construction.TSMC has two more plants under construction in the state that are being supported by $6.6 billion in grants and $5 billion in loans from Biden's Chips Act. The second Arizona plant is scheduled to open in 2028, and the third is expected to open by 2030.
