Qualcomm announces custom silicon will generate meaningful revenue in Q1 2027, with data center CPU in mid-2028, and Microsoft to deploy its HBC chip at Azure. Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang says national security comes first and black market data centers using smuggled chips are a 'dead end,' reinforcing US-China tech export controls.
