How GlobalFoundries Takes AI from Pilot to Global Scale
As AI moves from pilot projects to factory-wide deployment, GlobalFoundries’ VP of digital manufacturing explains in an exclusive interview how to decide what truly scales across global fabs.

Artificial intelligence has been part of semiconductor manufacturing for years, often quietly embedded in niche tools or isolated analytics projects. What has changed recently is not the presence of AI but its scope and intent. As process complexity rises and margins for error shrink, AI is moving from isolated optimization projects to a unifying operational layer across fabs.
At the center of that shift is a new approach to manufacturing—one that blends process engineering, data science, and global operations. At GlobalFoundries, that approach is led by Sujieth Vaasan, VP of digital manufacturing. His job is not to deploy AI for its own sake but to decide where AI creates real manufacturing value, how it should be validated, and when it’s ready to scale across multiple fabs worldwide.
