Gartner analysts predict that by the end of 2024, revenue from the supply of semiconductor components related to artificial intelligence (AI) will grow by 33% to reach $71 billion. In the server segment alone, revenue from computing accelerators is expected to hit $21 billion. According to the forecasts, this amount will increase to $33 billion by 2028. This significant growth highlights the increasing demand for AI-driven technologies in various industries.
AI PCs and Corporate Adoption
The share of so-called AI PCs in the structure of PC supplies is projected to reach 22% this year. In the corporate segment, this share will soar to 100% by the end of 2026. AI PCs refer to personal computers equipped with central processors capable of hardware-accelerating the operation of AI algorithms. Gartner experts, along with many of their colleagues, believe that these advanced computers will be particularly in demand in the corporate market. We’ll keep you updated as these developments unfold and impact the industry.
Future Revenue Projections
Looking ahead to 2025, revenue from the sales of all types of semiconductor components used in AI is expected to grow by another 29%, reaching $92 billion. This year, however, will demonstrate the highest growth rate over the three-year period. In 2024, revenue from the sale of AI-related electronic computing components is projected to make up 47% of the total, amounting to $33.4 billion. In the automotive segment, AI components will generate $7.1 billion in revenue, while in the consumer electronics segment, this figure will not exceed $1.8 billion, notes NIX Solutions.
Over time, large cloud service providers are likely to focus on developing their own components for AI systems. This strategy will be beneficial not only for the service providers themselves but also for end users, enhancing the efficiency and performance of AI applications.
