Why AI Chips Made In The U.S. Are Being Sent To Taiwan — Creating A Major Bottleneck https://vid.freedif.org/videos/watch/1413f5f5-84c3-4094-a7d8-85dc7e3c54fe There's a new bottleneck in the AI chipmaking process that happens almost entirely in Asia right now: advanced packaging. It connects smaller chips together into a larger chip like a GPU, so it can communicate with data centers and more. As Nvidia books the majority of capacity, TSMC prepares to break ground on its first U.S. packaging plants, and Elon Musk taps Intel for ambitious custom chip plans in Texas. CNBC got an exclusive interview with TSMC and toured an Intel packaging plant in Arizona to find out exactly how advanced packaging works and why capacity is ramping up fast. 00:00 - Introduction 2:25 - Rise of advanced packaging 5:57 - From 2D to 3D 10:39 - U.S. packaging capacity Produced and Shot by: Katie Tarasov Edited by: Evan Lee Miller Camera by: Marc Ganley, Tony Puyol Senior Director of Video: Jeniece Pettitt Animation: Jason Reginato, Emily Park » Subscribe to CNBC: https://cnb.cx/SubscribeCNBC » Subscribe to CNBC TV: https://cnb.cx/SubscribeCNBCtelevision About CNBC: From 'Wall Street' to 'Main Street' to award winning original documentaries and Reality TV series, CNBC has you covered.
