Meta has expanded its partnership with chip designer Broadcom (a leading US semiconductor company) to develop multiple generations of custom artificial intelligence processors, with the agreement running through 2029. The deal includes an initial commitment of over one gigawatt of computing capacity — enough to power approximately 750,000 average US homes — and will also incorporate Broadcom's Ethernet networking technology to connect Meta's growing AI computer clusters. The partnership reflects Meta's push to build the computing infrastructure needed to support AI-powered features across its social media platforms.
