DeepSeek said to train next AI model on Huawei chips
Original: DeepSeek reportedly plans to train V5 model on Huawei Ascend chips
Chinese AI firm DeepSeek is reportedly planning to train its upcoming V5 model on Huawei's Ascend chips rather than Nvidia hardware. If confirmed, it would mark a significant shift in China's AI compute strategy amid US export controls, showing domestic chips being used for frontier-scale training rather than only inference. Tech industry watchers are weighing what it means for Nvidia's position in China.
Why now: It signals a possible breakthrough for domestic Chinese chips in large-scale AI training, with big implications for the global semiconductor market.
