Huawei readies new AI chip for mass shipment

HUAWEI TECHNOLOGIES PLANS to begin mass shipments of its advanced 910C artificial intelligence chip to Chinese customers as early as next month, two people familiar with the matter said.

Some shipments have already been made, they added.

The timing is fortuitous for Chinese AI companies which have been left scrambling for domestic alternatives to the H20, the primary AI chip that Nvidia had until recently been allowed to sell freely in the Chinese market.

This month, US President Donald Trump's administration told Nvidia that sales of the H20 would require an export licence.
