Invidia announced that it will face costs of $ 5.5 billion after the US government imposed restrictions on the exports of the artificial intelligence chip (H20) to China, a major market for one of its most famous chips.
Artificial intelligence chips from Invidia were the main focus of US export controls, as US officials sought to prevent the latest chips to China, in an attempt to maintain the top of the artificial intelligence race.
Inviteia shares fell about 6.46% in pre -opening transactions, in the latest transactions.
The H20 is currently the most advanced Invidia chips offered in China, and it is pivotal in its efforts to keep pace with the prosperous artificial intelligence industry in China.
Chinese companies, including Tennsant, Ali Baba and Bayt Dance, the parent company of the Tech Talk application, increased its requests on the H20 chips due to the increasing demand for low -cost artificial intelligence models from the starting company.
While (H20) is not at the same speed of the Antevia slices offered for sale outside China in training artificial intelligence models, they compete with some of these segments in a stage known as “inference”, where artificial intelligence models provide answers to users, and the inference is witnessing rapidly to become the largest sector in the artificial intelligence slides market.
Restriction of sales
However, Invidia said on Tuesday that the US government restricted the H20 sales of China due to the risk of using it in giant computers. Although H20 has lower computing capabilities than other Entepia slices, its ability to communicate with memory slices and other computing slices at high speeds is still high.
Invidia said yesterday that the US government informed it on April 9th that the “H20” chip would require a license to export it to China, and on the 14th of the same month that these rules will remain indefinitely.
Invidia explained that the costs of $ 5.5 billion are linked to the H20 products for stocks, purchase obligations and relevant reserves.
This news comes at a time when Inviteia announced on Monday that it plans to build an artificial intelligence servers of up to $ 500 billion in the United States over the next four years with the help of partners such as Taiwan Simonkend Tiger Manuvakt Citcam (TSMC), in line with the Trump administration seeking local manufacturing.
