TL;DR Summary
Qualcomm inked a deal to supply Amazon with custom AI chips worth up to $60 billion over a decade, with a warrant for Amazon to buy up to 25 million Qualcomm shares based on purchases. The arrangement centers on AI inference, playing to Qualcomm’s efficiency and presenting a margin challenge rather than a direct threat to Nvidia’s leadership in AI training. Nvidia remains dominant in AI chips, reporting far larger data-center revenue, while Nvidia stock slipped slightly and Qualcomm rose on the news.
