説明を展開
The AI Semiconductor Sovereignty Strategy was released in 2024 with ₩9 trillion (~US$6.5bn) earmarked. Priorities: (1) HBM global #1 (SK hynix + Samsung supply roughly 90% of NVIDIA AI accelerator HBM); (2) sovereign inference chip R&D (Samsung Mach, Rebellions Atom, FuriosaAI RNGD); (3) target 20% global AI chip market share by 2030. Assessment: HBM is Korea's most stable leverage — a de facto monopoly that no one can challenge in the next 3-5 years. But sovereign inference / training chips (vs NVIDIA) remain catch-up — Samsung Mach 1 launched in 2024 with commercial share below 1%; Rebellions / FuriosaAI are fabless startups that need chaebol procurement to scale.
