Huawei’s AI Chip Expansion: A Bold Step or a Market Gamble?

The company Huawei is expected to soon start selling its Ascend AI chips outside of China. According to the publication Yna, Huawei plans to offer the chips to Korean clients. A source says that Huawei wants to start with its most powerful chip. This refers to the Ascend 950 processor, which was recently introduced and has not yet entered the market. The first target market for the company will be South Korea. Photo WCCF Tech

How competitive these solutions will be in a country where there are no issues buying Nvidia accelerators is still unclear. It should be noted that Huawei’s current solutions not only come out more expensive but also consume several times more energy. Moreover, Huawei still lacks access to a truly modern technological process. However, it will be interesting to see Huawei’s attempts to explore this part of the global market, as competition could positively impact the market overall.

Recent developments show that Huawei is intensifying its efforts to penetrate markets where Nvidia has a significant presence. Analysts suggest that Huawei may be leveraging new AI algorithms to optimize the performance of the Ascend 950, potentially reducing power consumption compared to its predecessors. Meanwhile, strategic collaborations with local tech firms in South Korea are rumored to be underway, aiming to strengthen Huawei’s footprint in this competitive arena.
