Nvidia has ridden the first wave of the AI boom to great heights, but the next wave promises a new set of big winners. Broadcom and AMD look very well positioned for the next AI supercycle just getting started.
Broadcom: The networking and custom chip opportunity
Broadcom is set to ride two powerful trends emerging in AI infrastructure. The first is the increasing importance of networking. Although large language model (LLM) training and inference are all about speed, it is no longer about how fast a single chip can operate, but how quickly a large cluster of chips can work together.
And the more AI accelerators that are strung together, the more important the networking components that tie them together become. Without high-speed networking to…
