One of Broadcom's core businesses is customizing ASICs for hyperscale customers; compared with general-purpose GPUs, custom chips can significantly reduce cost per unit of compute under specific workloads, but only if the customer's AI business is large enough and the workload stable enough, otherwise the sunk cost risk is higher.
