On Thursday, Nvidia Corp (NASDAQ:<\/a>NVDA<\/a>) CEO Jensen Huang said during a visit to Taiwan that surging AI demand is rapidly increasing the need for advanced memory.<\/p>\n

Huang said the future of artificial intelligence will be shaped as much by memory as by computing power, reported UDN, one of the leading media platforms in Taiwan.<\/p>\n

He noted that modern AI models need to think, respond and reason at extremely high speeds, driving a sharp rise in memory capacity requirements across the industry.<\/p>\n

The Nvidia CEO also highlighted that the company collaborates with every major high-bandwidth memory supplier<\/a>, including SK Hynix, Samsung Electronics (OTC:<\/a>SSNLF<\/a>) and Micron Technology Inc (NASDAQ:<\/a>MU<\/a>).<\/p>\n

He said Nvidia relies heavily on these partners to meet soaring demand this year.<\/p>\n

Huang rejected concerns that the U.S. has shifted about 40% of Taiwan’s semiconductor manufacturing capacity stateside.<\/p>\n

Instead, he said global chip production should be viewed as expanding, with new capacity being added in the U.S., Europe and Japan while Taiwan remains a key manufacturing hub.<\/p>\n

Huang praised Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. (NYSE:<\/a>TSM<\/a>) as the world’s best foundry partner<\/a>, citing its technology leadership, execution and flexibility.<\/p>\n

He said TSMC will need to significantly scale capacity over the next decade, with most production staying in Taiwan alongside overseas expansion.<\/p>\n

Huang dismissed rumors circulating in mainland China that Nvidia’s H200 AI chips have received regulatory approval, saying no orders have been placed and final clearance is still pending.<\/p>\n

If approval comes, he said, Nvidia is prepared to move quickly with partners to deliver products.<\/p>\n

Previously, it was reported that the clearance was granted during Huang’s visit to China, where he’s kicking off the company’s annual events ahead of the Lunar New Year in mid-February.<\/p>\n
