- An Nvidia spokesperson says Chinese domestic makers of workstation chips and cards have experienced "unprecedented growth since 2022," while US firms remain squeezed by two forces: US export controls that cover gaming products released nearly five years ago, and China's own limits on US chip imports.
- The poster notes that half a decade is an eternity in this business, calling the controls "outdated" an understatement.
- Context: Bloomberg reports China is weighing whether to allow ByteDance and Alibaba to purchase new Nvidia chips.
