What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Alphabet Inc. is collaborating with MediaTek to reduce Broadcom's market share in AI chip supply. Broadcom's custom AI-chip business is cited as a primary growth catalyst, with the company expecting AI semiconductor sales to approach $230 billion by fiscal 2028. Reports indicate that OpenAI is expected to become an increasingly important customer for Broadcom, which could help offset some lost share from Alphabet Inc.
