Intel and AMD will definitely have their share of the market. TSMC is at max capacity and investing in other semiconductor companies will be an absolute power move, I keep increasing my shares manageably. Different chips are good at different things and Nvidia has been very specialised, which leaves other aspects of Al open.

[@mondimlotshwa3958]

This is the type of in-depth detail on the semiconductor market that investors need, also the right moment to focus on the rewarding AI manifesto.

certainly, i had bought NVDA shares at $300, $475 cheap b4 the 10 for 1 split and with huge interest I keep adding, i’m currently doings the same for PLTR and AMD constructively. Best possible way to get ahead, is participating behind top experienced performers.

Morris Chang is arguably the most important living person on earth. He is even more important than Elon Musk, Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerberg, Jensen Huang and Sam Altman, because all of those founders who are developing the most advanced AI rely on TSMC's most advanced chip manufacturing.

[@crlin1220]

Behind the experience curve theory of the TSMC, one element rarely mentioned is the innovations/patents that were generated thorough the company's experience curve and its R&D. The annual R&D budget of the TSMC is more than 5 billion US dollars. TSMC has more than 68000 patents globally in the semiconductor manufacturing technology. These things are continuously keeping the TSMC at the leading edge of manufacturing the most advanced chips in the world. No other company can surpass it. It is ignorant for some people to think that the success of the TSMC in Taiwan depends merely on the better exercise in logistics execution.

One of the important takeaways is not many countries can replace Taiwan as semiconductor powerhouse. Asking people not to jump to other jobs with better pay is a joke in many countries . Morris Chang with his great foresight and understanding of Taiwanese culture, he makes semiconductor technology possible. Without him and dedication of Taiwanese people, we might not have the IT technology what we are having now. People are seriously underestimating how important this person is to the internet, telecommunications and smartphones

[@conscience580]

It seems that the "free market" if you will found its home in the willing engineers of Taiwan willing to stay in dormitories, and work like regimented soldiers, in a highly disciplined environment. I did not observe in Dr. Chang's presentation, one bit of technology that TSMC invented. It is simply an exercise in logistics execution, that TSMC and the surrounding suppliers have created. What is difficult to recreate isn't the technical expertise for EUV, but the cultural mindet and personal sacrifices that enables the well-oiled machine of EUV production, that requires Americans to put, if not corporate profits, then perhaps national goals at the altar, something Americans haven't done since the moon landing.

[@martineseverri5160]

I worked for tsmc for 3 years, 1.5 years in tainan fab18, 1.5 years in phoenix. This comment hits the nail on the head. TSMC is a master of copying and pasting by means of an authoritarian culture. Employees will just do what they are told. As a young Venezuelan engineer I was excited to see innovation in tsmc factories but didnt find a drop of it. Without the innovation of free thought fueled by non-authoritarian cultures there would be no tsmc.

[@chenhsu3581]

As a Taiwanese, I don’t think building TSMC fabs in the US is a good idea. Americans should do more interesting things and let someone else do the hard work…

[@martineseverri5160]

@@chenhsu3581 I will always admire Taiwanese work ethic, but I am curious why Taiwanese don’t also want to do the interesting work? Maybe it’s as simple as work culture, like personal gratification comes in the form of doing what you ‘should’ not what you want. I will never understand that! Haha much love nonetheless.

[@user-fq3pw6kh9o]

​@@chenhsu3581 USA government is helping India to replace Taiwan for doing these hard work as Taiwan is at the risk of having a war soon

[@chenhsu3581]

@@martineseverri5160Actually, we do. That’s why so many Taiwanese top students apply to US graduate schools every year. But there are still many students decide to stay. I think the reason is that boring works are stable, while interesting works are sometimes risky. In the US, people are more adventurous and willing to offer chances for young people to do something different, so the risk is compensated by the enormous opportunities. In Taiwan, we do not have that luxury, so most of our top students end up in big companies like TSMC.

Correction. Dr. Morris Chang is not the founder of TSMC. He is engaged(from Texus instruments then)with a few others to start the TSMCproject initiated by the guomingdang government in taiwan then as a way, among others, of economic development. Needless to say nobody would have known then that TSMC would become the best producer, credit of Dr. Morris Chang.

[@InspectorA-r2e]

So government planning worked because it was based on the industrial policy of martial law.

[@chickenlin]

This is wrong. A more accurate description would be: Li Kwoh-ting, a government politician, tried to build a semiconductor company in Taiwan. He had no idea about the business model, so he invited Morris Chang, who invented the foundry model of TSMC. So, yes, Morris is the founder of TSMC without question. Li Kwoh-ting persuaded the government to support the company; the initial shareholders were: the government (48.3%), Philips (27.5%), and other local companies (24.2%).

A combination of really smart people working in a democracy coupled with loyal workers in a less than democratic system, though importantly with some freedom to be comfortable, equals technological progress. The loyal operators were key and they can still be found even in advanced economies so a structure to nurture them and provide a comfortable life for them will pay dividends. In the future, humanoid robots will be critical at the operator, and eventually, technicians level.

They all wallowed in "chips" with closed systems, proprietary systems, while an "IF THEN ELSE" chip, accessible to everyone, would have allowed a decentralized industry, accessible to the local electrician.
