Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang unsure if China would buy its H200 chips if restrictions are relaxed as Beijing prioritizes homegrown AI solutions — 'We don’t know. We have no clue.'

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang expressed uncertainty about whether China would purchase its H200 chips if restrictions were relaxed, as Beijing focuses on homegrown AI solutions. The Biden administration had previously banned the export of the AI chip to Beijing due to security concerns, leading to a significant market share drop for Nvidia in China. Despite lobbying efforts by Huang, the White House may only allow Nvidia to sell outdated AI chips to China, limiting the potential impact of exporting the H200. This potential move could be a significant victory for Nvidia, although it may not fully restore the company's previous market position in China.
