Nvidia CEO Huang Criticizes DeepSeek's Move to Huawei Chips, Citing Risks for US Interests

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang expressed strong concerns on the Dwarkesh Podcast about DeepSeek's decision to optimize its AI models for Huawei’s Ascend 950PR processor instead of US-made hardware. He warned this shift could have serious negative implications for the United States, labeling it a “horrible outcome.” This move comes as DeepSeek prepares to launch its new V4 foundation model on Huawei’s technology, challenging Nvidia’s dominance in AI chip hardware.
