You're the weirdest foreign affairs expert here breh
Cat acts like he knows what's going on in every country
Posting about China's chips, but people I go to school with as Electrical Engineers and working professionals say China/Asia is a hotspot for chips because we actually have industry knowledge and see jobs ship over there every day. You can even see that on subreddits. Cats I personally know deal with that shyt every day for job hunts. Where's your expertise on that?
China will make just 2% of most advanced chips by 2032, report says
U.S. set to triple its semiconductor manufacturing capacity due to CHIPS ActLOS ANGELES -- The U.S. is set to more than triple its semiconductor manufacturing capacity and control almost 30% of advanced chipmaking by 2032, thanks in no small part to the CHIPS Act.
The country could be producing 28% of chips below the 10-nanometer level by then, while China is expected to make only 2% of the most advanced chips, according to a report released Wednesday by the Semiconductor Industry Association (SIA) and Boston Consulting Group (BCG).
Washington passed the CHIPS and Science Act in 2022, with the bill granting $39 billion in funding for building chip manufacturing capacity in America as the nation seeks to curb its reliance on Asia-concentrated supply chains.
TSMC originally intended to make 3-nm chips in its Arizona fab, but now will also produce 2-nm ones after receiving a $6.6 billion grant. Samsung has also pledged to mass produce 2-nm chips in its Texas fabs with $6.4 billion in funding from the CHIPS Act.
As a result, by 2032, the U.S. will have the capacity to manufacture 28% of chips below 10 nanometers, according to the SIA and BCG report.
By comparison, while China has also laid out more than $142 billion in government incentives to build its domestic semiconductor industry, the country is expected to be able to make only 2% of the world’s most advanced chips, the report projected.
“China seems to be putting a lot more energy into the so-called legacy chips,” said John Neuffer, president and CEO of SIA.
For example, for chips in the range of 10 to 22 nanometers, China will triple its share of manufacturing capacity from 6% to 19% by 2032. For those above 28 nanometers, China is expected to show the biggest share gain, going from 33% in 2022 to 37% in 2032, according to the report.
Meanwhile, U.S. controls on semiconductor exports to China, especially on leading-edge chips and chipmaking tools, are also part of the reason China will fall so far behind the U.S., despite both having zero advanced chip manufacturing capacity in 2022.
“There are some controls that are probably slowing things down,” said Neuffer, adding that “China is starting from a much lower base for the most advanced chips.”
He continued, “Despite the U.S. kind of slipping on manufacturing, when it comes to design and R&D, the U.S. is number one and has been that way for nearly the entire view of our industry's history.”

So instead of working for 8 of the 10 largest companies by market cap in the world including 7 out of the 10 most valued semi-conductor companies in the world
your “colleagues” go to China because that’s where is happening? Even though I’ve proven they don’t have the manufacturing capability to produce advanced chips?
