Chinese tech giants turn to Nvidia gaming chips for AI
Original: Chinese tech giants are buying Nvidia gaming chips for AI. Here's why.
Major Chinese technology companies are purchasing Nvidia gaming-focused graphics cards to power artificial intelligence workloads, according to a Reuters report. Export restrictions block Chinese firms from buying Nvidia's most advanced AI chips, so companies are reportedly using consumer gaming GPUs, which remain legally available, as a workaround to keep developing and running AI models.
Why now: US export controls have cut Chinese firms off from Nvidia's top AI chips, making this workaround newsworthy.
