What’s Next in Semiconductors
is powering full-stack AI
The way the world computes is shifting. Over the last decade, demand for AI applications has grown exponentially. Pipelines are getting more complex, and the world needs new hardware to train and serve AI at the scale enterprise demands. At IBM Research, we’re building the hardware and the tools to serve cutting-edge AI. We’re pushing the limits of semiconductor design, packaging, and connectivity, with innovations like sub-2 nm node chips, co-packaged optics, the AIU family of chips, and 3D nanosheet transistor technology. We’re building tomorrow’s AI supercomputers from the ground up.
