Alibaba and Baidu Chips Challenge Nvidia

阿里百度芯片挑战英伟达

Alibaba and Baidu have started using self-designed chips to train AI models, reducing reliance on Nvidia.
阿里巴巴和百度开始使用自主设计的芯片训练大模型，减少对英伟达的依赖。
Alibaba has used its chips since early this year for lightweight AI training, while Baidu is testing its Kunlun P800 on a new Wenxin model.
阿里自年初起已在轻量级AI模型训练中应用自研芯片，而百度则尝试用昆仑芯P800训练新版文心大模型。
Employees say Alibaba’s AI chips already rival Nvidia’s H20.
有员工称，阿里的AI芯片已能与英伟达H20媲美。
Still, both companies continue using Nvidia chips for cutting-edge model development.
不过，两家公司并未完全放弃英伟达，仍依赖其芯片开发最尖端模型。
This highlights the growing competitiveness of domestic chips in the AI field.
这一举措标志着国产芯片在人工智能领域的突破与竞争力提升。
