Microsoft Maia 300 pairs 288GB HBM4 at 18 TB/s on TSMC N2P across 96-chip 167 kW racks, bypassing Nvidia memory walls via direct-to-chip liquid cooling.
Retailers cut M5 Max Mac Studio prices by $200 as the 512GB M5 Ultra ships at $10,000+. Here is why VRAM residency, not a 26% CPU uplift, dictates the buy.
FeSens openTPU runs LFM2.5 at 85.8 tok/s on Kintex-7 FPGA silicon via agent-designed RTL, but off-chip DDR bandwidth caps multi-billion models at 1-4 tok/s.
AMD’s $8.2 billion World Labs deal is pending. Atlas connects spatial context and diffusion; buyers still need measured accelerator performance.
OpenShell mediates agent access; Sentry adds an out-of-band hardware watchdog. NVIDIA describes quarantine in milliseconds, not a verified 850µs result.
EY–IESA projects a $200B Indian semiconductor market by 2035. The implied growth rate is 13.5%; demand does not establish domestic manufacturing revenue.
