China's Huawei Chip Deal Aims to Wean It Off Nvidia Amid Trade Tensions
DeepSeek has announced plans to purchase 160,000 Huawei chips as part of China's effort to reduce its dependence on Nvidia. This move is seen as a response to the ongoing trade tensions between the US and China.
The purchase is significant, as it indicates that companies are looking for alternative suppliers in light of the tensions.
Huawei has been making efforts to expand its presence in the global semiconductor market, and this deal could be a major boost to its plans.
