Amazon Considers Selling AI Chips to Rivals

Amazon is exploring the possibility of selling its custom-designed artificial intelligence chips to external clients, according to CEO Andy Jassy. This strategic move could significantly expand the reach of Amazon's silicon development efforts beyond its internal needs for cloud services. The company's in-house chip division is projected to generate over $20 billion annually, highlighting the substantial investment and progress made in this area. Offering these chips externally would position Amazon as a direct competitor in the lucrative AI hardware market, potentially challenging established players and providing new revenue streams.
