Nvidia’s CEO Jensen Huang says that U.S. export controls prohibiting the same of advanced semiconductor chips to China are a failure that have incenticized CHina to develop more quickly its own artificial intelligence technologies. Nvidia has lost market share to Chinese competitors because of the limitations.
While attending a conference in Taipei, he said “The local companies are very talented and very determined, and the export controls give them the spirit, energy and the government support to accelerate their development.” He said China was the second-largest computer market globally and would be a $50 billion AI market next year. Revenue from China, he said, could translate to tax dollars and jobs for the U.S.
“I think all along the export control was a failure,” Huang said.“America is not the only provider of AI technology,” he said. “If the United States wants to stay in the lead and the U.S. would like the rest of the world to build on American technology, then we would have to maximize AI diffusion, maximize the speed.”
Nvidia is active in a number of arenas. Marvell Technology, Inc. confirmed a strategic partnership with NVIDIA Corporation that paves the way for integration of NVIDIA’s NVLink Fusion technology into its custom cloud platform silicon solutions. Marvell is a major facilitator in the AI semiconductor ecosystem by fusing its proprietary silicon capabilities with NVIDIA’s NVLink Fusion technology. The partnership uses the company’s wide range of semiconductor products, including silicon photonics, die-to-die interconnects, SerDes, and sophisticated packaging.
