Memory demand surges, Samsung and SK Hynix accelerate advanced chip supply

According to statements from both parties, Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix will provide advanced memory chips and related technologies to meet OpenAI's growing computational and storage needs in the "StarGate" project. The two companies are currently leaders in the global memory market, and this collaboration is expected to further solidify their critical position in the AI chip supply chain. In addition, OpenAI has also reached an agreement with SK Telecom to establish a local AI data center in Korea named StarGate Korea (星際之門韓國(, which will support global model training and deployment efforts.

Open AI and Samsung develop floating offshore data centers to reduce carbon emissions

The official press release from Samsung announced that its subsidiaries Samsung C&T and Samsung Heavy Industries have signed a letter of intent with OpenAI to jointly explore the development of Floating Data Centers ). Floating Data Centers are seen as having the potential to alleviate land resource constraints, reduce cooling costs, and decrease carbon emissions. It is claimed that compared to traditional land-based data centers, offshore data centers can effectively alleviate land resource limitations, reduce energy consumption and carbon emissions through seawater cooling.

The United States strongly supports Gate, and has officially expanded its reach to Asia.

The Stargate Project has received strong investment support from the Trump administration, with core infrastructure including the construction of AI super data centers worldwide, integration of cloud computing, energy supply, and high-performance chips, ensuring the stable development of large language models (such as GPT) and other AI tools.

The currently announced infrastructure projects include a flagship AI data center in Texas, along with five others distributed across the United States, located in New Mexico, Ohio, and a yet-to-be-disclosed location in the Midwest. The upcoming collaborations between Open AI and Samsung and SK indicate that OpenAI is expanding the "Gate" into Asia, which, once completed, will be an AI data center spanning both America and Asia.
