TrendForce forecasts uncertain growth for AI server shipments in 2025, influenced by US export controls, the rise of DeepSeek, and GB rack preparation progress. The base case projects 28% growth; the worse case, 20-25%; and the bullish case, nearly 35%. While DeepSeek may reduce demand for high-end AI training servers, it will drive edge AI inference server development and encourage CSP investment in custom ASICs, benefiting long-term AI market growth. AI inference is expected to gradually approach a 50% market share.
