Summary
September is when Meta plans to begin producing its own AI chip, a Reuters-reported step aimed at lowering computing costs and reducing reliance on Nvidia GPUs.
Six weeks of testing found no major issues, clearing the way for a chip co-designed with Broadcom and manufactured by TSMC to support AI features across Facebook and Instagram.
Meta is planning four generations of in-house processors for its data-center buildout as it seeks 14 gigawatts of AI compute capacity in 2027.
1.3 million GPUs were on Meta's 2025 deployment path, underscoring how large the Nvidia relationship remains even as Meta expands custom silicon.
