What happened

Computex 2026: ASUS Bets Big on AI Factory Infrastructure "AI factory" has perhaps become one of the technology sector's favourite phrases.

Why it matters

Behind it, though, lies a growing market for the data centre infrastructure needed to train, deploy and operate AI at scale.

Common ground

Training and deploying advanced AI systems now requires vast amounts of compute, power, cooling, networking and storage.

Perspective signals

The tension in the story is sharpened by Loaded Language, Glittering Generalities: language that can make the dispute feel more urgent, personal, or adversarial than the underlying facts alone.
