US-blacklisted Chinese university buys Nvidia H200 AI chips through domestic suppliers: Report
Beijing [China], November 11 (ANI): A Chinese university with close ties to the People’s Liberation Army (PLA) has purchased Nvidia’s advanced H200 artificial intelligence (AI) chips despite being on a US trade blacklist, highlighting gaps in Washington’s restrictions on China’s access to high-end computing technology, according to a Reuters report.
Northwestern Polytechnical University bought two H200 chips for 874,700 yuan (around USD 123,000) last month through a Chinese technology supplier, rather than directly from Nvidia, procurement records reviewed by Reuters showed.
