OpenAI Expands Collaboration with Samsung in Chip Development and Enterprise AI Services
OpenAI has deepened its collaboration with Samsung Electronics to advance next-generation chip development and enterprise AI services. Harrison Kim, General Manager of OpenAI Korea, highlighted significant progress made through joint research on chips during a press conference in Seoul. The partnership is also focused on integrating ChatGPT into Samsung's operations globally, where it has become one of the largest deployments outside the U.S. OpenAI noted that South Korean businesses and institutions have seen an approximately 28-fold increase in ChatGPT Enterprise users by late August compared to the previous year. The company is also working closely with South Korean semiconductor suppliers as AI hardware becomes more sophisticated, increasing demand for memory chips. Samsung has been distributing samples of its HBM4E high-bandwidth memory chip and previously signed agreements with SK Hynix to supply OpenAI's Stargate data center project. On the enterprise side, Samsung allows employees in its Device eXperience division to use ChatGPT alongside other AI models like Google’s Gemini. OpenAI anticipates a surge in AI adoption following the launch of GPT-6 Astra on September 4.
