Chinese firms to produce high bandwidth memory for AI chipsets, report says

Reuters reported that two Chinese chipmakers plan to introduce high bandwidth memory (HBM). Reportedly, they are in the early stages of producing HBM semiconductors which are usually used in artificial intelligence chipset.

The progress in HBM – even if only in older versions of HBM – represents a major step forward in China’s efforts to reduce its reliance on foreign suppliers amid tensions with Washington that have led to restrictions on U.S. exports of advanced chipsets to Chinese firms.
