Officials from both countries signed the Pax Silica declaration on the sidelines of a major AI summit in New Delhi last week.<\/p>\n<p>This initiative seeks to bring together US \u201callies and trusted partners\u201d to lead the global AI race. Australia was a founding member.<\/p>\n<p>While Taiwan looks set to keep dominating advanced AI chip manufacturing, it relies on a complex international supply chain, with critical aspects dominated by China.<\/p>\n<p>When essential elements come from a narrow set of suppliers, even minor disruptions can ripple globally. Diversity matters. That\u2019s why Australia and India now have an opportunity to become essential international players. <\/p>\n<h2>Why Washington is building an alliance<\/h2>\n<p>AI is rapidly becoming a foundational resource of the 21st century across manufacturing, logistics, finance, healthcare, drug discovery and defence.<\/p>\n<p>The Pax Silica alliance recognises different countries play distinct and critical roles in building the tech that powers AI.<\/p>\n<p>For example, advanced chip-design expertise is concentrated in the US. Key semiconductor manufacturing equipment comes from the Netherlands and Japan. <\/p>\n<p>South Korea produces a small but important slice of the world\u2019s AI computer chips. But the biggest chip maker by far is the tiny island nation of Taiwan.<\/p>\n<p>              <span class=\"caption\">Healthcare AI robots at an exhibition at the India AI Impact Summit.<\/span><br \/>\n              <span class=\"attribution\">AP<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>The world\u2019s chip factory<\/h2>\n<p>Taiwan produces 90% of the world\u2019s most advanced AI chips, designed by US firms such as Nvidia, Google and AMD. <\/p>\n<p>These firms overwhelmingly depend on Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC). This remains the only manufacturer that can produce the world\u2019s most cutting-edge chips at scale. <\/p>\n<p>And their advantage extends beyond making chips.
