[DeepX Invests $100 Million in New AI Chip Using Samsung Technology] According to Odaily, South Korean AI chip startup DeepX plans to invest over $100 million to develop a new generation of AI chips using Samsung Electronics' advanced 2nm process technology. In a statement, DeepX said it has completed the design of its DX-M2 chip and submitted the final design to Samsung Electronics' foundry for production. The company expects to receive its first chip samples by March 2027, followed by customer evaluation, and plans to achieve mass production in 2028. The project is expected to cost over $100 million, including performance verification and manufacturing engineering costs. DeepX plans to apply the DX-M2 chip to robots, industrial equipment, and AI-enabled personal computers. This investment reflects DeepX's significant bet on edge AI computing, running AI models directly on devices rather than relying on the computing power of remote data centers. This approach reduces energy consumption, costs, and latency associated with data transfer between devices and the cloud.
