ByteDance, TikTok’s parent company, is reportedly in talks to purchase artificial intelligence chips from MediaTek for its data centers.

In 2026, ByteDance’s AI infrastructure spending could reach 160 to 200 billion yuan, with half allocated to processors. The company already controls roughly one-fifth of China’s data center capacity. MediaTek aims to generate 2 billion dollars in AI-specific integrated circuit revenue in 2026.
