The global artificial intelligence chip market size was valued at USD 23.7 Billion in 2024. Looking forward, IMARC Group estimates the market to reach USD 173.5 Billion by 2033, exhibiting a CAGR of 24.8% during 2025-2033. North America exhibits a clear dominance in the artificial intelligence chip market with 32.1% of the market share. This region is driven by rapid advancements in machine learning, high demand for cloud-based applications, growing investments in AI startups, and widespread adoption of these chips across various industries.
Artificial intelligence (AI) chips are specially designed to run machine learning (ML) workloads through programming frameworks. They comprise field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs), graphics processing units (GPUs), and application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs). They also consist of AI-optimized features, which can accelerate calculations and computing tasks required by AI algorithms. They rely on small transistors, which run faster and consume less energy as compared to large transistors. They are designed for applications that use artificial neural networks (ANN), which is a machine learning (ML) approach inspired by the human brain. They can execute tasks that are highly complex and dynamic by processing multiple streams of information simultaneously. They eliminate the need to rely on the cloud to store data, as these chips can run AI programs locally on the devices. As they offer natural language processing (NLP), computer vision, robotics, and network security, AI chips find applications in the automotive, information and technology (IT), healthcare, and retail industries across the globe.
