AMD plans to substantially boost AI chip supply in 2027 as demand far outpaces production, CEO Lisa Su announced. Economic Times The company, which recently hit a $1 trillion market value, is already ramping up output in 2026 and coordinating with suppliers like TSMC, Foxconn, Samsung, and SK Hynix to meet surging orders for server CPUs and AI accelerators.
AMD's EPYC server processors are reportedly sold out through 2027, with orders stretching into 2028, according to Crypto Briefing. The company has committed over $10 billion to Taiwan to expand manufacturing, while su emphasized the industry needs more advanced wafer capacity and said AMD plans supply three to five years ahead.
Agentic AI Driving Unprecedented Demand Surge
Demand for AI chips has exploded beyond forecasts, driven by agentic AI workloads that exceeded earlier industry estimates, Crypto Briefing reported. These advanced AI systems, which act autonomously to complete complex tasks, require far more computing power than traditional machine learning. The shortage has left customers waiting months or years for delivery of critical server infrastructure.
AMD's Three-Year Plan to Close the Supply Gap
Lisa Su said AMD is planning supply needs three to five years in advance to address the persistent shortage, according to TipRanks. The company has expanded production during 2026 and is coordinating directly with partners including TSMC for chip manufacturing, Samsung and SK Hynix for memory, and Foxconn for assembly. Su noted the entire industry needs more advanced wafer production facilities to meet AI demand.
AMD Stock Jumps on Supply Outlook, CEO Backs Trump Summit
AMD stock rose about 1% following Su's announcement of the major supply increase, TipRanks reported. Su also described an AI summit between President Donald Trump and technology executives as an important step forward. She emphasized that coordination among leading technology companies will matter as artificial intelligence and superintelligence advance, signaling AMD's role in shaping the industry's future.
