Nvidia is collaborating with the US government to ensure compliance with export curbs for new chips intended for the Chinese market. Nvidia is expected to face challenges with the new US restrictions on chip exports.
Nvidia had informed its customers in China about a delay in launching a new AI chip designed explicitly for the Chinese market. The launch initially planned for the next quarter, will take place in the first quarter of the following year.
Nvidia's Commitment to Regulatory Compliance
CEO Jensen Huang emphasized Nvidia's collaboration with the US government during a news conference in Singapore. He stated that Nvidia, which contains over 90% of the market share in China's $7 billion AI chip market, has been working diligently to create products that align with regulatory requirements, as per CNN. The company plans to develop a new set of products adhering to the further limitations imposed by regulations.
Huang highlighted the importance of seeking market advice while the company collaborates with the US government. He acknowledged that Huawei, a significant competitor, poses a formidable challenge in the industry. Nvidia's November earnings report revealed an expected decline in fourth-quarter sales in China following the implementation of the new US rules.
Huang noted that historically, China has contributed around 20% to Nvidia's revenue. However, it remains uncertain how much this percentage will be affected due to the new export restrictions imposed by the United States. According to Yahoo, the situation is under close observation, and Nvidia aims to adapt its strategies accordingly.
Prospective Investments in Singapore
In parallel, Nvidia is discussing potential significant investments with Singapore. Furthermore, the company is collaborating with the city-state to support the development of its large language model, Sealion.
This partnership aligns with Singapore's Infocomm Media Development Authority's recently announced initiative to foster the creation of Southeast Asia's first large language model, backed by a $52 million investment.
