Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. Ltd. (TSMC) will temporarily stop shipping some of its artificial intelligence (AI) chips made with 7-nanometer or more advanced process technology to its Chinese mainland clients, sources told Caixin, in a move that could presage an escalation in the China-U.S. tech war.
The Taiwan-based TSMC has sent word to several AI chip designers on the mainland that it will suspend its contract manufacturing services for them, without providing further details, according to executives at a handful of the companies.
