Samsung Electronics announced on Tuesday that it secured a contract from Japanese artificial intelligence company Preferred Networks to produce chips for AI applications using Samsung's advanced 2-nanometre foundry process and chip packaging service. 

This marks Samsung's first publicly disclosed order for its cutting-edge 2-nanometre chip manufacturing process, although the company did not disclose the order's size. 

The chips will utilize the gate all-around (GAA) chip architecture and will be integrated into a single package to improve inter-connection speed and reduce size.

The chip design was created by South Korea's Gaonchips Co. 

These chips will be used in Preferred Networks' high-performance computing hardware for generative AI technologies, such as large language models, according to Junichiro Makino, Vice President and Chief Technology Officer of Computing Architecture at Preferred Networks.
