The Cyberspace Administration of China (CAC) has reportedly banned the country's local tech companies from purchasing NVlDlA's newest Al chip made for the region, According to the Financial Times, the internet regulator told Chinese tech companies, including ByteDance and Alibaba, to cancel their orders for and to stop testing NVlDlA's RTX Pro 6000D. After receiving the directive from CAC, the companies reportedly told their suppliers to stop all activities related to the GPU. As Reuters notes, the ban is stronger than the "guidance" the regulator issued against the company's older H20 chips for the country. NVlDlA CEO Jensen Huang is disappointed by the ban, the BBc reports. "There are a lot of places we can't go to, and that's fine," he told reporters. He also said he would "support the US" as it resolves its geopolitical issues with China. |
