Bloomberg: Sam Altman met about 50 Samsung executives in South Korea, seeking deeper memory-chip and data-center ties as shortages bite.

Memory has become a binding constraint on AI buildouts, with shortages across many memory products pushing chip prices sharply higher.

South Korea leads in advanced memory, so Nvidia’s Jensen Huang and AMD’s Lisa Su have each visited twice since last year.

Saturday’s talks extend an earlier deal under which Samsung supplies memory for OpenAI’s Stargate project and works with OpenAI on data centers, including floating offshore sites.

When that deal was signed in October 2025, OpenAI said Samsung and SK Hynix were targeting up to 900K DRAM wafers a month combined.
