The research firm noted that there will be a “distinct inflection point” in 2026, with a shift from technology adoption to a change in demand for AI applications as the driver of growth.
"The most significant change is the upward revision of the underlying data center semiconductor market driven by growth in AI,” said Alexander Harrowell, Omdia's principal analyst for advanced computing. “Beyond that, we're noticing hyperscalers' custom chips, especially Google's TPUs, starting to capture market share from GPUs. We expect them to be increasingly important."
