China shifts AI accelerator budgets from Nvidia to domestic suppliers · 1 source tracked

Chinese companies are increasingly shifting their AI accelerator budgets away from Nvidia and towards domestic suppliers, driven by US-China tensions and a national push for technological self-sufficiency. A Bloomberg Intelligence survey indicates that these companies plan to allocate 46% of their AI accelerator budgets to local products within the next year, a significant increase from the current 30%. This trend is expected to benefit major Chinese tech firms like Huawei and Alibaba, as well as specialized chipmakers such as Hygon and Cambricon, while potentially reducing Nvidia's market share in China.
