The Chip Race: Who Builds the Hardware That Runs the Future?
Every AI revolution runs on silicon. For years, one company has defined the rules of that game but the architecture of AI hardware is entering its most contested and creative era yet. A new generation of chip designers and silicon architects are moving fast to build the next generation of compute: faster, leaner, more energy efficient and purpose-built for an AI-native world. Because the question is not just who builds the chip that runs the future but whether we can build it sustainably, at a cost the world can actually afford. What does it take to challenge the status quo at the hardware level, and why does it matter who wins?
