Huawei Technologies plans to begin mass shipments of its advanced 910C artificial intelligence chip to Chinese customers as early as next month, two people familiar with the matter said.

US export restrictions are expected to accelerate China's push for self-reliance, including efforts to shift the chip supply chain onshore Huawei Technologies will roll out its new Ascend 920 artificial intelligence (AI) chip later this year,

Some shipments of the 910C, which is said to offer performance comparable to Nvidia's H100 chip, have already been made.
