According to information obtained by the Reuters news agency, China is apparently using a trick to circumvent the US ban on the export of high-performance CPUs to the People’s Republic. According to an analysis of hundreds of delivery documents, ten Chinese companies purchased servers equipped with the latest generation of special processors optimized for artificial intelligence (AI) from global market leader Nvidia. The buyers were previously relatively unknown retailers. The documents show that they passed the products on to Chinese universities and research institutes.
