Technology Semiconductors

POET Technologies Inc. is a design and development company. It offers high-speed optical engines, light source products and custom optical modules to the artificial intelligence (AI) systems market and to hyperscale data centers. Its photonic integration solutions are based on the POET Optical Interposer, a novel, patented platform that allows the integration of electronic and photonic devices into a single chip using wafer-level semiconductor manufacturing techniques. Its Optical Interposer-based products consume less power than comparable products, are smaller in size and are readily scalable to high production volumes. In addition, it has designed and produced novel light source products for chip-to-chip data communication within and between AI servers, the next frontier for solving bandwidth and latency problems in AI systems. Its Optical Interposer platform solves device integration challenges across a range of communication, computing and sensing applications.

RE:RE:AI billions

Now is a good time to revisit this.

There is cash available for AI, in fact billions.

The question is, is Poet management up to the task to channel some of the billions into Poet?

Before the voting at the next AGM, management can show what they are made of.

Can't make claims there is no money for AI.

trying to raise for a chip venture for setting up a network of factories that will manufacture semiconductors, Bloomberg News reported
, opens new tab on Friday, citing people with knowledge of the plans.
Altman has had talks with several large potential investors in the hopes of raising the
vast sums needed for chip fabrication plants, colloquially known as fabs, the report said.
The project would involve working with top chip manufacturers and the network of fabs
would be global in scope, according to the report.
Manufacturing chips is expensive. They also require copious amounts of natural resources,
in addition to the billions of dollars in funding. Costs have been rising over the years
as technology advances to make chips used in artificial intelligence applications.
Abu Dhabi-based G42 and Japan's SoftBank Group (9984.T)

the talks are still early and a full list of involved partners and funders has not been
established, the report said.
The talks with G42, with which the ChatGPT maker partnered in October last year, alone
had focused on raising $8 billion to $10 billion, although the current status of the
discussions is unclear, according to the report.
Intel (INTC.O)

OpenAI, SoftBank, Intel, TSMC, G42 and Samsung did not immediately respond to Reuters
requests for comment. Microsoft declined to comment.
Altman returned to OpenAI in November after a surprise ouster that had sent shockwaves
through the tech industry.
