    Place an order with TSMC on behalf of Huawei? Suaneng Technology claims injustice, Xu Meihua releases statement and reveals 2 things Computing Technology faces allegations of acting as an intermediary for Huawei by ordering chips from TSMC. This came to light after it was discovered that Huawei's AI-focused "Ascend 910B processor" may use TSMC's 7-nanometer process. In response, Computing Technology denied any ties with Huawei and expressed dissatisfaction with the situation. Expert Xu Meihua suggested that the company's strong denial indicates a fear of U.S. sanctions. He noted that the firm might be under U.S. scrutiny, and the statement aimed to show allegiance in a tense regulatory environment. These allegations were heightened by reports that a subsidiary of Bitmain, Computing Technology, processed orders for chips linked to Huawei's processors. In reaction to the accusations, TSMC halted all orders from Computing Technology. The latter emphasized its lack of connection to Huawei and its commitment to U.S. export controls, submitting a report to TSMC for clarification. Additionally, Computing Technology plans to take legal action to safeguard its reputation against what it perceives as false reporting from competitors and the media. Xu remains concerned about the implications for Computing Technology's operations and TSMC's accountability. #Semiconductors #Taiwan https://lnkd.in/gfDcphpv

    Increase in electronic waste due to spread of artificial intelligence (AI) Disposal of data center equipment The rise of generative artificial intelligence (AI) technology is expected to significantly increase electronic waste, with projections estimating discarded data center equipment to accumulate between 1.2 million and 5 million tons from 2020 to 2030. Higher AI usage is anticipated to drive increased electricity consumption and greenhouse gas emissions, raising environmental concerns over hazardous substances like lead and chromium in the waste. North America is projected to produce about 58% of this electronic waste, while East Asia, including Japan, is expected to contribute around 25%. Furthermore, if countries impose export restrictions on advanced semiconductors akin to those in the U.S., there may be a rise in low-performance devices to maintain computing capabilities, further intensifying waste production.
