Bravo
If ARM was an arm, BRN would be its biceps💪!
Arm is saying all the right things but is yet to take a serious punt on us. So frustrating!
AI bigger than internet and smartphones, says Arm Holdings

TAIPEI (May 19): British chip architect Arm Holdings plc, backed by Japan’s SoftBank Group Corp, believes artificial intelligence (AI) is a bigger technological shift than the internet or the smartphone.
AI models are now evolving and accelerating, Chris Bergey, Arm's senior vice-president and general manager of client line of business, told the audience during the Computex 2025 Arm Executive Session at Grand Hilai Taipei on Monday.
“We are at the doorstep of the most important moment in the history of technology,” he said. “Today, the discussion is no longer about what AI might do, but what it’s doing.”
The Cambridge-headquartered semiconductor and software design firm licenses the instruction sets for modern chips to partners, who then make chips with customisations for their unique applications.
Arm-designed chips are nearly all-present in the modern world, from sensors, automotive, personal computers (PCs), Internet of Things, smartphones to supercomputers.
“Now is a time for us to build what’s next,” Bergey said. “And the best part? We don’t have to do it alone… we can do this together.”
In March, the Malaysian government announced that it will pay Arm a total of US$250 million (RM1.11 billion) over 10 years for semiconductor-related licences and know-how.
The main goals are to create “Made by Malaysia” AI chips in the next five to seven years, as well as to establish 10 chip companies with a combined annual turnover of up to US$20 billion.
The UK firm has shipped over 300 billion chips and today, 99% of smartphones run on Arm-based processors. Some 70% of the world's population uses Arm-based products, while 50% of all chips with processors are Arm-based.
“Yesterday’s legacy architecture can’t power tomorrow’s AI. We need to move faster and scale smartly. If we don’t solve efficiency, AI won’t scale,” he warned.
By the end of 2025, half of new devices and server chips being shipped to hyperscalers will be Arm-based, while over 40% of PCs and tablets shipments will also be Arm-backed, according to Bergey.
