Baidu-backed chip designer Kunlunxin wins millions of China Mobile orders
Chinese semiconductor design firm Kunlunxin, which is backed by Baidu, said it had won chip orders worth over a billion yuan ($139 million) for telecoms firm China Mobile’s AI projects, as authorities push for domestic alternatives to Nvidia.
Kunlunxin will supply artificial intelligence chips compatible with Nvidia’s CUDA software platform to firms such as H3C Technologies and telecoms equipment maker ZTE that are first-tier suppliers to China Mobile, it said in a statement released late on Thursday.
