AI Chip Technology Advances Alongside High-Speed 5G Infrastructure

The AI industry’s focus is shifting from training large models to real-time inference, prompting companies to compete in technologies such as silicon photonics and CoWoS advanced packaging to overcome constraints in computing power, bandwidth and energy consumption. Meanwhile, 5G uplink capacity determines how quickly device data can reach cloud or edge computing systems, making it critical infrastructure for deploying AI applications.

Chunghwa Telecom recently worked with MediaTek and Nokia to achieve a 5G uplink speed milestone of 400 Mbps, strengthening data transmission capabilities for high-definition video, industrial sensing and generative AI. The available information did not disclose the test date, location or value of the partnership. A separately listed report about Adobe’s CEO stepping down was not directly related to this event.
