    ByteDance's AI Chip Development Plans

    According to The Information, ByteDance is working with TSMC to manufacture two AI chips by 2026. This decision aims to decrease reliance on suppliers like Nvidia, a leading company in the AI chip niche. Companies face difficulties in obtaining Nvidia GPUs due to US export restrictions, prompting ByteDance to seek other alternatives.

    Expansion of ByteDance's AI Portfolio

    ByteDance has already made significant progress in artificial intelligence development. In August 2022, the company introduced Doubao, an AI chatbot, which has become the main competitor to Baidu’s Ernie Bot. Doubao has gained popularity and has outperformed Ernie Bot in terms of downloads and active users on iOS. In May, ByteDance launched Doubao's large language models aimed at enterprise clients. These models are relatively cheap compared to other models with similar features.

    Alternative AI Chip Developments in China

    ByteDance's plan to develop its own chips is driven by rising tensions between the US and China over technology exports. Earlier this year, the US introduced tough measures to restrict key technology exports, including AI chips. ByteDance has also been working with US-based chipmaker Broadcom to develop a processor that meets US export regulations and will be manufactured by TSMC. Last year, ByteDance acquired Huawei's Ascend 910B chips. ByteDance is not the only Chinese company developing its own AI chips. Another technology firm, Baidu, has also designed its AI chip, Kunlun 3, which TSMC is set to produce soon.

    ByteDance's development of its own AI chips is aimed at strengthening its AI capabilities and reducing dependency on external suppliers. It is also part of a broader trend of technological self-sufficiency in China.
