Huawei rumored to have an Nvidia-rivaling AI chip.

In response to US restrictions on chip exports, Chinese companies have been trying to develop their own hardware to power generative AI, but so far, have trailed behind. Now the Wall Street Journal reports that Huawei is not only preparing to ship more of its existing Ascend 910B and 910C chips, but also to start testing a new 910D AI processor.

It’s reportedly aiming to surpass the popular H100 chip Nvidia launched in 2022, although the 910D is reportedly “less power-efficient.”
