Within the next decade, our industry will replace over a trillion dollars of the world’s traditional computers with new accelerated AI computers.

A day earlier, Huang spoke at National Taiwan University’s commencement, telling the graduating students that they were at the beginning of a major technology era and encouraging them to seize the unprecedented opportunities that AI will present. Indeed, with the advent of Chat GPT and with the AI theme, prices of technology stocks such as Microsoft, Facebook parent company Meta, and Google have skyrocketed. How to survive in the face of the AI onslaught has become a major test for various industries.

Even by 2030, AI chips will only make up no more than 15% of the entire chip market. Despite the fact that everyone is optimistic about the AI industry and everyone is talking about AI, in the long run, the sector’s space for growth is quite limited.

With the market value expected to reach US$80 trillion by 2030, AI continues to affect the global economy. While experts hold varying views on the burgeoning industry, they agree that learning to coexist with AI is a must so as to avoid becoming obsolete.
