ByteDance might source its processing chips from AMD and Intel
For your information, ByteDance is seen sourcing its processing chips from companies like AMD and Intel, with Intel saying that the wait time for its CPUs will increase to six months, especially for customers in China. AMD also said that the supply of CPU components for AI processing purposes is getting tighter due to high demand.
Moreover, ByteDance has introduced AI video generation technology SeeDance, and is expected to introduce more AI technology to their other services, so starting out and producing their own processing chips is something they need to start now, so they don't face component problems in the future.
In addition, Reuters said that for now, these chips are still in the design phase, and at this time it is still unknown who ByteDance's partners are in them and producing these ByteDance-specific processing chips.
