SK hynix's CEO has forecast the worst memory supply shortage in history for 2027. While AI demand spreads beyond HBM into DRAM and NAND, the expanded production facilities in Yongin and Cheongju will only come online gradually between 2027 and 2029.
On June 25, 2026, Google submitted comments to the EU Copyright Directive review opposing DNS, IP, and VPN blocking. We examine the timing—just three months after losing in a French appellate court—and the parallel dynamics of regulatory expansion and judicial pushback unfolding simultaneously in the EU and the US.
As demand for advanced packaging technology for AI semiconductors surges, TSMC is expanding outsourcing to and cooperation with external companies to resolve its supply shortage. This situation is creating business opportunities for Intel's competing technology and for the proprietary packaging methods of Taiwan's OSAT companies, reshaping the balance of power in the supply chain.
A research group at the University of Tokyo has developed, for the first time in the world, a technology that reads and writes the magnetic information of a single atom using only quantum mechanical "force," without using any electric current whatsoever. Because this method can prevent heat generation from Joule heating as well as malfunctions, it represents a groundbreaking achievement toward realizing the ultimate high-density memory.
London-based Spectral Compute has published its own benchmarks showing its CUDA-compatible compiler SCALE running 5.94x faster than HIP on AMD GPUs, raised $6 million in November 2025, and joined the NVIDIA Inception Program in June 2026. This piece examines where the evidence stands, contrasted against the ZLUDA precedent.
A research team including KAIST automatically classified over 120,000 MoS₂ flakes and evaluated 1,615 FETs. By statistically capturing differences in current flow and switching performance across layer counts, they built a data foundation for 2D semiconductor design.
Meta has removed, across all accounts, the reference feature of its AI tool "Muse Image," which could generate images of Instagram users without their consent, just three days after launch amid a concentration of criticism from multiple directions. This is an examination of what marks the third failure of consent-related design at Meta since 2025.
SEALSQ and GlobalFoundries will jointly develop reusable post-quantum cryptography IP and CryoCMOS for quantum control. The US government's compliance deadline of end-2030 is pushing forward the race for certification and mass production after standardization.
Claude Code Desktop's browser pane now supports interaction with external websites. While it bridges development and research within a single screen, permissions are separated through clean profiles and per-site approvals.
Nanya Technology has laid out a preliminary plan to invest over NT$200 billion in 2027. The company aims to channel cash generated from surging prices into its new fab, ramping up to a monthly capacity of 30,000 wafers by 2028.
