Investing.com -- Super Micro Computer (NASDAQ:SMCI), a San Jose, California-based server manufacturer, is planning to increase its production capacity in the U.S. to meet the growing global demand for artificial intelligence (AI), according to a report from the Wall Street Journal late on Tuesday, citing an interview on Monday with the company’s CEO.

Charles Liang, CEO and chairman of Super Micro Computer, revealed the interview that the demand for AI is growing rapidly, presenting numerous opportunities for growth in the U.S., Europe, and Japan. Liang mentioned that the company is considering expanding its production to states such as Mississippi and Texas, particularly if the current U.S. administration continues to promote localization.

Super Micro Computer, a supplier of servers utilized for generative AI, announced plans in February to construct its third campus in San Jose. Liang noted that the company is considering manufacturing in Texas and Mississippi due to the rising costs in Silicon Valley. The majority of Super Micro’s servers are currently produced in California.

The company’s expansion plans come as it seeks to capitalize on the global AI boom.
