China's military and government acquire Nvidia chips despite US ban

Chinese military bodies and state-run AI research institutes and universities have been purchasing banned Nvidia semiconductors from largely unknown Chinese suppliers, as revealed by a review of tender documents by Reuters. These purchases demonstrate the challenges faced by the US in completely cutting off China's access to advanced US chips. The banned chips include Nvidia's A100 and H100, which are crucial for AI and sophisticated computers used by the Chinese military. The high demand for these chips underscores the lack of viable alternatives for Chinese firms, despite efforts by Huawei and others.
