Geopolitical Tensions and TSMC's Role

The ongoing trade war between major global economic powers is putting Taiwan, and particularly TSMC (Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company), to the test. The company, a world leader in semiconductor manufacturing, finds itself in a delicate strategic position.

Ongoing negotiations could lead the country to cede part of its most valuable competitive advantage: TSMC's production capacity and technological innovation. This scenario raises questions about the solidity of Taiwan's so-called "silicio shield," that is, its ability to protect itself through dominance in the chip sector.

For those evaluating on-premise deployments, there are trade-offs to consider carefully. AI-RADAR offers analytical frameworks on /llm-onpremise to evaluate these aspects.
