AI Chip Packaging Innovations Reshape Semiconductor Industry by 2030

According to the article, the semiconductor industry is undergoing a major transformation driven by advanced packaging technologies for artificial intelligence (AI) chips. As of November 13, 2025, new packaging innovations like chiplet architectures and hybrid bonding are blurring the boundaries between chip design and assembly.

Over the next 12-24 months, the industry will see a test of which packaging platforms can balance cost and performance at scale. This is redrawing the competitive landscape between foundries like TSMC, Intel, and Samsung, and outsourced assembly and test (OSAT) providers such as ASE, Amkor, and JCET. Control of packaging capacity and design integration is becoming as crucial as leading-edge node technology.
