Two Sides of the AI Revolution: NVIDIA’s $5 Trillion Ascent and the Human Cost of Automation

There are two sides to every revolution.

On one side: NVIDIA setting up a new base in Taipei, crossing a $5 trillion valuation, and redefining what global AI leadership looks like.

On the other: tens of thousands of white-collar layoffs, as companies cite AI efficiency as the reason for restructuring.

This week on Inside Taiwan, we explore how the world’s most valuable chipmaker and its partners are redrawing the global supply chain — and what this means for the people powering it.

From NVIDIA’s new Taipei HQ to Wenyee’s $3.8B acquisition that turned it into the world’s largest IC distributor, and Amazon’s new wave of AI-driven job cuts — we look at the two forces shaping this era: creation and displacement.

The question isn’t whether AI will change everything.
It’s whether we can build the bridges fast enough for people to cross from the old economy to the new.
