Tom Merritt: 我认为ARM计划在今年夏天发布自己的服务器芯片是一个重要的战略转变。一直以来,ARM主要通过授权芯片设计和指令集来盈利,而不是自己制造芯片。这次他们决定自己设计芯片,然后委托其他公司制造,并以ARM品牌直接销售,这表明他们希望在服务器市场占据一席之地。而且,现在很多公司都在开发自己的服务器芯片,ARM也希望能够从中分一杯羹。软银作为ARM的大股东,自然希望ARM能从蓬勃发展的人工智能市场中获得更多收益。此外,软银还计划收购Ampere,该公司使用ARM的IP设计芯片,这些芯片也被用于AI数据中心,这进一步表明了软银在服务器芯片市场的野心。 Huyen Tue Dao: 我觉得ARM推出自己的芯片可能类似于微软的做法,将Surface作为参考设计和旗舰产品,展示ARM指令集的能力,并从中获取服务器市场的利润。这种做法既可以帮助ARM获得市场份额,又可以促进其技术的推广。不过,现在的问题是,如果苹果、英伟达、三星和高通等大型公司都获得了ARM的架构许可,那么ARM还能向谁销售其芯片呢?我认为,ARM可以考虑向中端手机市场发力,或者通过提供更具吸引力的参考设计来吸引客户。

ARM, known for licensing chip designs, will be making its own server chips, marking a significant change in its business model. This decision is driven by the booming AI market and the trend of major tech companies creating their own server chips. The first customer for ARM's new chip will be Meta.
  • ARM will make its own server chips this summer.
  • Meta will be the first customer.
  • ARM's decision is partly influenced by SoftBank's ownership and the booming AI market.
  • This is a big shift, as ARM traditionally licenses its designs instead of manufacturing its own chips.
