As of January 12, 2026, the global semiconductor landscape has reached a historic inflection point. The RISC-V architecture, once a niche academic project, has officially matured into the "third pillar" of computing, standing alongside the long-dominant x86 and ARM architectures. With a global market penetration of 25% in silicon unit shipments and the recent ratification [...]
As the calendar turns to January 12, 2026, the global semiconductor landscape is witnessing a seismic shift. Samsung Electronics (KRX: 005930) has officially entered the era of high-volume 2nm production, leveraging its multi-year head start in Gate-All-Around (GAA) transistor architecture to challenge the long-standing dominance of Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (NYSE: TSM). With the launch [...]
The Consumer Electronics Show (CES) 2026 has officially closed the chapter on AI as a high-tech parlor trick. For the past two years, the industry teased "AI PCs" that offered little more than glorified chatbots and background blur for video calls. However, this year’s showcase in Las Vegas signaled a seismic shift. The narrative has [...]
In a definitive moment for the silicon age, NVIDIA (NASDAQ: NVDA) has officially crossed the historic milestone of $100 billion in annual semiconductor sales, cementing its role as the primary architect of the global artificial intelligence revolution.
