Tencent said to lease 100,000 banned Nvidia chips via Oracle
Original: Tencent leases 100000 banned Nvidia chips through Oracle in Southeast Asia
Tencent has reportedly secured access to around 100,000 Nvidia chips that are banned from export to China by leasing computing capacity through Oracle in Southeast Asia, according to a Fortune report. The arrangement would let the Chinese tech giant use restricted US AI hardware without direct imports. The report is likely to intensify scrutiny of US export controls and cloud workarounds.
Why now: It highlights a reported loophole in US export controls on advanced AI chips to China, a politically sensitive topic.
