ByteDance developing AI chip, in manufacturing talks with Samsung
Business Standard
|February 12, 2026
China’s ByteDance is developing an artificial intelligence chip and is in talks with Samsung Electronics to manufacture it, two people familiar with the matter said, as the TikTok parent seeks to secure supply of advanced processors.
ByteDance aims to receive sample chips by end-March, they said. The company plans to produce at least 100,000 units of the chip, designed for AI inference tasks, this year, according to one of the sources and another person. One of the sources said Bytedance is looking to progressively ramp production to up to 350,000 units.
Negotiations with Samsung include access to memory chip supplies that are in exceptionally short supply amid the one of the sources said.
The information about ByteDance's in-house chip project is inaccurate, a spokesperson for the company said in a statement, without elaborating. Samsung declined to comment.
The work would mark a milestone for ByteDance, which has long sought to develop chips to support its AI workloads.
