Huawei Technologies is talking to Chinese tech companies about a powerful new artificial-intelligence chip it has developed, The Wall Street Journal reported. Huawei is aiming for the chip to replace some high-end products from Nvidia, the U.S. chipmaker that dominates AI chips, the Journal said. The new chip, called the Ascend 910D, is still in early stages of development and will require testing before it can be shipped to customers. Huawei expects to get the first of the new chips in about a month, the Journal reported. The company hopes the chip will be more powerful than Nvidia’s H100. Huawei is aiming to help China become self-sufficient in high-end chips. The U.S. is trying to prevent that from happening by cutting off China from buying chip-making gear and from high-end chips like those from Nvidia. Nvidia took a $5.5 billion charge this month when Washington restricted sales in China of its H20 chip. That had been the top processor the company could sell inside China without a license. Restrictions like these have pushed China to develop its own technologies. Huawei has already released a high-end smartphone with domestically made chips. https://www.wsj.com/tech/.. #🇨🇳 ChinA.I. 🤖🧠🦾🤖
