Samsung Electronics has reported a massive surge in first-quarter earnings, with operating profit jumping 8x year-on-year, driven by the ongoing AI boom. Samsung Electronics saw strong demand for memory chips as global tech firms ramped up investments in AI data centers, tightening supply and pushing prices higher.

The company posted record profits in its chip division, which contributed the bulk of total earnings. However, rising chip prices impacted its mobile business, leading to a decline in that segment.

With AI infrastructure spending expected to grow further, Samsung anticipates continued momentum in the coming quarters.
