Samsung Electronics has secured a major contract to fabricate proprietary AI accelerator chips for Anthropic, the AI firm behind the Claude AI system, using Samsung Foundry's cutting-edge 2 nm process node and advanced packaging technology. Samsung Electronics invested in Anthropic's $65 billion Series H funding round. Anthropic, a US-based AI firm founded in 2021 by ex-OpenAI researchers, competes directly with OpenAI. Samsung Foundry's reported contract comes a few months after it secured chip orders from Tesla and Groq, which could help the company return to profitability next quarter. Samsung is also reportedly in talks with Google and Meta to manufacture AI chips. Due to the ongoing AI boom, TSMC is facing significant production backlogs, charging high prices, and prioritizing orders from Apple, AMD, MediaTek, and Nvidia, which could allow Samsung Foundry to attract more customers. Samsung Electronics is currently the only company that offers chip fabrication, chip packaging, and memory chips under one roof.
