One of the biggest stories of my career came out two months ago. Two days earlier, I gave birth to bouncy healthy identical twin boys.
So here at last is my story on Apple custom silicon, a first ever on-cam tour at their chip labs + interview w top execs cnbc.com/2023/12/01/how…

New story drop!

Arm just reported 1st earnings after its blockbuster IPO in Sept. Here's my story on what's behind the hype, from the failed $40 billion acquisition attempt by #Nvidia to a surge in adoption by #Apple , #Qualcomm , #Amazon , #Google , despite risks from China

Despite a ban in China, Micron Technology is building the biggest chip project in U.S. history: $100 billion in NY + $15 billion in Idaho. In my latest CNBC Chip Giants story, I ask Sanjay Mehrotra how they'll pull it off + talk w Chuck Schumer & Governor Kathy Hochul

Went to upstate NY & wore a bright orange bunny suit for my latest Chip Giants story: GlobalFoundries. It's not doing leading edge or seeing gains like NVIDIA, but it's essential for nearly all connected devices. And it's the only U.S.-based top foundry: youtu.be/wdP_goQU0ZU?si…

Despite Apple extending its iPhone modem deal w Qualcomm through 2026, my sit-down with CEO Cristiano R. Amon was all abt diversifying into auto, IoT, and gen AI off the cloud. Our inside look at Qualcomm's chip lab and plans to grow, with or without Apple.

Behind the scenes CNBC at 1 Market in San Fran shooting for Katie Tarasov's Chip Giants series. Won't spill which company is coming up next, but as always, I expect it to be a great breakdown for viewers looking to get to know the #semiconductor companies shaping the world.

Making AI chips isn't just for giants like NVIDIA anymore. I got the 1st tour of Amazon's chip lab where it designs Trainium/Inferentia. Google has TPUs. Microsoft's working on Athena. But will Amazon Web Services' millions of existing customers give it an edge?

I've been to Texas a lot lately…because it's got more chip fabs than any other state + $61 billion more coming. I sat down w Gov. Greg Abbott to ask about water, power, subsidies & low taxes. I also got rare tours inside Texas Instruments, Samsung Electronics & Infineon:

🙋🏼‍♀️1st U.S. journalist to get on-cam fab tour at #Samsung . You probably know its #Galaxy phones, TVs, appliances...but it's also the world's 2nd biggest maker of advanced chips. As memory prices fall, it's focusing on foundry w new $17 billion fab in Texas: youtu.be/59FLrNTGVMg

Re-Tweeting as the wife of a then-CalFire firefighter who spent 55 days on the fire line in 2020 without a day off. Preach.

Nearly a decade after announcing #PrimeAir , Amazon told me it's now at 100 drone deliveries.
I went to Lockeford to try and see some (unsuccessfully). So I visited Zipline (600,000 deliveries) and Wing (330,000 deliveries) to see how they got ahead by starting outside the U.S.

Amazon has made just 100 Prime Air drone deliveries so far, after projecting 10K US deliveries in 2023; Wing has made 330K deliveries, Zipline has made 600K (@katietarasov / CNBC)

For years, Amazon workers have told me they feel unsafe. It's finally time to tell their stories, as OSHA_DOL cites Amazon for 'failing to keep workers safe,' DOJ Civil Division asks if Amazon hid injuries & Strategic Organizing Center says they're injured at twice the rate of others

Ahead of #GTC23 , I sat down w NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang to hear how his big bet on AI is finally paying off + how it's mitigating risks like China export controls. Here's the story of Nvidia's rise from revolutionary graphics to #ChatGPT engine, with Bryan Catanzaro
