AI’s Future Is Built on Silicon – Not Just Software

Daily we see headlines that focus on generative AI (GenAI) breakthroughs, the real transformation is happening deeper - in the hardware that powers it all!

The future of AI ultimately depends on semiconductor chips. As demand for AI and more computing power accelerates world governments are working to stay in the lead. The US and EU CHIPS Acts are examples of how the governments are looking to fuel new FABs, reduce their supply chain risk, and open doors for more industrial innovations.

For manufacturers of semiconductor manufacturing  equipment this means:

  • A surge in new FAB construction
  • Upgrades to existing FABs to meet the evolving AI demands

Intertek supports AI-Driven manufacturing and helps clients navigate the market shift by:

  • Global Electrical Safety compliance testing and certification
  • SEMI Standards evaluations
  • Cybersecurity and digital assurance for connected systems
  • Technical guidance for emerging standards
