China, Jensen Huang and NVIDIA
Digest more
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang's visit to Beijing involved praising China's tech and EVs, even calling them world-class. This occurred after the U.S. relaxed AI chip sale rules as part of a trade agreement.
The US government is reportedly considering loosening export restrictions, which could allow the tech giants to resume sales of some lower-end AI chips to China. This policy shift comes after April's export ban blocked chips such as Nvidia’s H20 AI accelerator and AMD's MI308.
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang delivered a rare Mandarin-language keynote at the China International Supply Chain Expo on July 16, appearing in traditional Chinese attire. His presence underscored Nvidia's growing engagement with China's fast-evolving AI landscape.
Huang is now richer than LVMH’s Bernard Arnault ($147.9 billion) and just behind Google co-founder Larry Page ($150.6 billion).
Nvidia Corp.’s Jensen Huang spent months telling everyone what a grave mistake the US was making restricting shipments of artificial intelligence processors to China — with little sign that his argument was swaying anyone.
