Taiwan’s Computex 2026 opens with Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang leading a week of appearances by AI-computing executives, underscoring the show’s shift from PCs to the infrastructure behind the post-ChatGPT boom.
Nvidia, Intel and other chipmakers are set to debate the industry’s most pressing constraints, especially shortages and bottlenecks in critical components such as memory chips.
The gathering also highlights intensifying competition around Nvidia’s dominance at the top of the semiconductor stack as rivals push to challenge its lead in AI hardware.
Backed by heavy spending from Meta and OpenAI, the AI surge has minted new industry winners, while raising broader concerns that its gains are concentrating among a narrow set of companies and specialized workers.
With Nvidia financing its own ecosystem, is the multi-trillion dollar AI boom an illusion on the verge of collapse?
Tech giants are now designing their own chips. Is this the beginning of the end for Nvidia's dominance?
As AI erases entry-level jobs, how will the next generation of workers even launch their careers?
