SEOUL (Reuters) -Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix have signed letters of intent to supply memory chips for OpenAI's data centers, as South Korean chipmakers join forces with the ChatGPT maker to meet rising demand from its Stargate project.
OpenAI will also work with the two South Korean firms on building two data centers, a Korean-style Stargate, leveraging Seoul's ambition to become an AI hub in Asia and the country's large number of paying ChatGPT subscribers - second only to that of the United States.
