Nvidia has announced a major initiative to manufacture its AI supercomputers entirely within the United States. The company aims to produce up to $500 billion worth of AI infrastructure in the U.S. over the next four years, partnering with major manufacturing firms like Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co (TSMC), Foxconn, Wistron, Amkor, and SPIL. This move marks the first time Nvidia will carry out chip packaging and supercomputer assembly entirely within the United States. The company sees this effort as a way to meet the increasing demand for AI chips, strengthen its supply chain, and boost resilience.

Nvidia is commissioning over a million square feet of manufacturing space to build and test Blackwell chips in Arizona and assemble AI supercomputers in Texas. Production of Blackwell chips has already begun at TSMC’s chip plants in Phoenix, Arizona. The company is also constructing supercomputer manufacturing plants in Texas, partnering with Foxconn in Houston and Wistron in Dallas, with mass production expected to ramp up within the next 12-15 months. These facilities are designed to support the deployment of "gigawatt AI factories", data centers specifically built for processing artificial intelligence.

CEO Jensen Huang emphasized the significance of bringing AI infrastructure manufacturing to the U.S., stating that "The engines of the world’s AI infrastructure are being built in the United States for the first time." Nvidia also plans to deploy its own technologies to optimize the design and operation of the new facilities, utilizing platforms like Omniverse to simulate factory operations and Isaac GR00T to develop automated robotics systems. The company said domestic production could help drive long-term economic growth and job creation.
