CHINA CLAIMS NVIDIA BUILT BACKDOOR INTO H20 CHIP DESIGNED FOR CHINESE MARKET

Summary from the TLDR AI newsletter

China's cyber regulator recently held a meeting with Nvidia over serious security issues with the company's artificial intelligence chips. It claims that Nvidia's H20 chips, which were designed for the Chinese market to comply with US export restrictions, have location tracking and that they can be remotely shut down. Major Chinese tech groups have received informal guidance to increase purchases of domestic AI chips to reduce reliance on Nvidia and support the evolution of a rival domestic chip ecosystem.
