Google in talks with Samsung to make next-generation chips, The Information reports
Google is weighing Samsung’s 2-nanometer process for part of its Icefish processor as it looks to diversify chip manufacturing, the report said.
- On Thursday, The Information reported that Google is in talks with Samsung Electronics to manufacture part of its next-generation artificial intelligence processor, codenamed "Icefish."
- Google plans for Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing to produce the main computing portion, while Samsung may manufacture a component connecting it to memory using 2-nanometer production technology.
- Facing capacity constraints, TSMC struggles to keep pace with surging AI demand, prompting Google to seek alternative manufacturing partners for its Tensor Processing Unit lineup.
- Earlier this week, reports indicated Google is also discussing manufacturing over three million Tensor Processing Units with Intel by 2028, reflecting broader supply-chain diversification efforts.
- The "Icefish" processor remains in design stage with mass production possible as early as 2028, a win for Samsung's contract chip-manufacturing business amid intensifying competition.

The Information, a U.S. IT news outlet, reported that Google is considering entrusting some of the production of its in-house next-generation artificial intelligence (AI) semiconductor, the Tensor Processing Unit (TPU), to Samsung Electronics. This move is interpreted as an effort to diversify the supply chain as the production capacity of TSMC, the world's largest foundry (semiconductor contract manufacturer), has become saturated due to AI dem…
