[Las Vegas, United States=DigitalToday reporter Jin-ho Lee] Dell Technologies will support Samsung Electronics in building a semiconductor artificial intelligence (AI) factory. It will apply solutions across Samsung Electronics' research and development, chip design and production systems and help the shift to intelligent manufacturing.

Dell Technologies held Dell Technologies World 2026 (DTW 2026) on May 18, local time, in Las Vegas. In a keynote address by Chairman and Chief Executive Michael Dell themed "Unleash the Future", Samsung Electronics Vice President Song Yong-ho (송용호) highlighted the results of the partnership between the two companies in a video message.

As AI adoption accelerates across industries, Samsung Electronics is embedding AI across design, engineering and production workflows. It is using digital twins, real-time analytics and AI agents to predict risks and push for improvements in precision, yield and quality.

Dell Technologies will provide standardised infrastructure components for computing, storage and data movement so it can support Samsung Electronics' AI model operations and core systems at the same time. Samsung Electronics' semiconductor plants use AI models to analyse equipment telemetry, process data and inspection results. They also optimise yield based on data used to build digital twins.

Dell AI infrastructure supports consistency across Samsung Electronics' manufacturing environment. This is expected to help Samsung Electronics speed up expansion of advanced memory such as high-bandwidth memory (HBM), logic processes and advanced packaging businesses.

Dell Technologies and Samsung Electronics will accelerate cooperation starting with DTW26. They plan to continue working together on scaling infrastructure that can continuously expand AI across the entire semiconductor lifecycle from design to production and across various regions and facilities.

Song said, "Samsung Electronics is moving beyond automation toward intelligence by applying AI across design, engineering and production." He added, "Our long-standing collaboration with Dell Technologies will support the stability and predictability needed for this change."

Rich McLaughlin (리치 맥러클린), president in charge of Dell Technologies' Asia-Pacific region, said, "To manufacture semiconductors at scale, consistency, resilience and long-term scalability are needed." He added, "Based on decades of accumulated enterprise infrastructure expertise, we will help AI become a core element of global manufacturing."
