AGP Executive Report

Last update: 2 hours ago

Fab Safety: Three workers were reported killed and another injured in a fall at TSMC’s Fab 22 construction site in Kaohsiung. Work has been halted as authorities investigate a suspected structural failure. AI Chip Demand: ByteDance, Alibaba and Tencent ordered more than three million Nvidia RTX PRO 5500 cards, worth over US$35 billion, but Nvidia warned it may supply only a fraction of the requested volume. Micron Labor: Taoyuan union members plan a one-day strike on Oct. 22, pressing for a concrete profit-sharing proposal as talks continue. Research Reactors: National Tsing Hua University and NuCube Energy will explore a US-made microreactor for research and medical use, with regulatory approval needed and a possible 2031 start. Chip Export Rules: Taiwan is moving to criminalize unauthorized exports of AI hardware to China, tightening controls amid shifting US-China trade rules.
