Huawei AI Chip Redesign Aims to Break Nvidia’s China Dominance
China’s Huawei Technologies is plotting a fundamental redesign of its next artificial intelligence chip in a bid to seize market share from Nvidia.
The Chinese tech giant is working on a new AI chip design that would allow its chips to be used for a wider array of AI development work than its current ones can handle, according to two people with knowledge of the plan. That would bring Huawei’s chips closer to the design used by both Nvidia and Advanced Micro Devices, the people said, making it easier for Chinese AI developers to switch from Nvidia’s chips to Huawei’s.
