Semiconductor and software company Arm Holdings is launching its own chips, the first in-house chip in its 35-year history. The company has been licensing its designs to companies like Nvidia and Apple. The Arm AGI CPU is designed to run inference in an AI data center and is the first customer of this chip. This shift from exclusively licensing to manufacturing silicon is a significant departure from Arm's tradition. The move comes amid increasing demand for CPUs, which are increasingly difficult to obtain due to shortages.
