AI impact

Supplies what AI runs on Cuts both ways

Analog Devices sells power management and connectivity semiconductor solutions that benefit from growing data center demand to support artificial intelligence workloads. However, the company faces competition from rivals using artificial intelligence to create similar or more cost-effective competing products.

Where AI helps it

  • Sells what AI workloads consume (minor)

Where AI could hurt it

  • AI makes it cheaper for rivals to build what it sells (minor)

In the company's words

Data Center — This market is driven by rapid adoption of AI, machine learning and hyperscale architectures, which require advanced power delivery, thermal management and high-speed connectivity solutions to address the growing demand for high-performance computing and cloud infrastructure.
In addition, we face significant competition from other companies that are incorporating AI into their products and technologies.
