According to a report on the website of the Lianhe Zaobao on July 22, Reuters reported that the American chip giant Nvidia is developing a new flagship AI chip for the Chinese market, and the chip specification complies with the current export control regulations of the United States, citing sources familiar with the matter.

Reuters reported on the 22nd that Nvidia launched the "Blackwell" series of chips in March this year, which will be mass-produced later this year. The B200 model in this series is many times faster than its predecessor in certain tasks, such as providing answers in chatbots.

Two sources said that Nvidia will collaborate with the company's main distribution partners in China to launch and distribute versions of the chip series for the Chinese market.

Washington strengthened its control over China's exports of cutting-edge semiconductors in 2023, and since then, Nvidia has developed three chips specifically for the Chinese market.
