ByteDance Reportedly Developing In-House CPU to Support AI Infrastructure Expansion

According to foreign media reports citing insiders, ByteDance's expansion plans have been constrained by continuously rising chip prices and prolonged supply shortages. To meet the surging demand for AI infrastructure, ByteDance is developing its own in-house CPU. The company plans to deploy these self-developed CPUs in its proprietary servers and data centers to support internal operations. Meanwhile, ByteDance is preparing for the large-scale launch of several agent-based products, including the Coze platform. Sources indicated that the project is still in its early stages.
