British chip designer Arm Holdings expects 100 billion Arm devices worldwide will be ready for artificial intelligence by the end of next year, the company’s chief executive, Rene Haas, said on Monday at the Computex forum in Taipei.
Arm‘s technology powered the rise of smartphones and is increasingly found in PCs and in data centers, where chip designers have gravitated toward its energy efficiency.
Smartphones remain Arm‘s biggest single market, where the company supplies intellectual property to arch rivals such as Apple and Android chip suppliers Qualcomm and MediaTek.
