Samsung and NVIDIA Join Forces to Build AI Megafactory Built Around 50,000 GPUs

South Korean tech giant Samsung Electronics is partnering with NVIDIA Corporation to create a next-generation “AI Megafactory” that embeds artificial intelligence throughout its global semiconductor manufacturing process. The initiative will deploy more than 50,000 NVIDIA GPUs, utilising platforms and tools such as NVIDIA Omniverse, CUDA-X, and cuLitho to deploy AI-enabled automation, digital twin simulations, and advanced robotics.

A New Era for Chipmaking

This landmark move marks a dramatic shift in manufacturing strategy: rather than relying solely on incremental automation upgrades, Samsung is aiming for a fully intelligent manufacturing ecosystem. AI will not only assist but control and optimise design, production, and testing workflows in real time. By harnessing vast data streams from equipment, systems, and fab operations, the Megafactory platform intends to predict disruptions and adjust processes dynamically.

How It Works

Key components of the initiative include:
