The U.S. won’t accept Huawei success. If Huawei is to succeed it will have to be without any Western innovations. The U.S. seems hell-bent on ensuring that’s the case.
The Biden administration plans to blacklist Sophgo, a Chinese company linked to Huawei, for illegally incorporating a TSMC-made chip into Huawei’s AI processor.
Huawei’s Ascend 910B, released in 2022, is considered the most advanced AI chip from a Chinese company, with plans to mass-produce the Ascend 910C by early 2025.
However, it now appears Huawei was able to shock the world with that chip because it relied on TSMC, indirectly.
TSMC is a Taiwanese company. Taiwan is but a province of China if you ask the Chinese government but the Taiwanese consider themselves the real China. So, in what world is TSMC considered Western technology?
There are two main reasons – TSMC heavily relies on advanced chip-making equipment and software tools from U.S. To use that tech they have to comply with U.S. export restrictions.
The second main reason is that Taiwan has close ties with the U.S. and Western allies. While Taiwan maintains its autonomy, its tech industry is aligned with Western interests, especially in the face of tensions with China.
Huawei’s TSMC-produced chip
TechInsights discovered the TSMC chip in Huawei’s Ascend 910B, prompting TSMC to notify U.S. authorities and initiate an investigation.
TSMC halted shipments to Sophgo after discovering the chip’s connection to Huawei, which has been under U.S. export restrictions since 2020.
Sophgo denies any business relationship with Huawei, stating it primarily supplies local governments and state-owned firms in China.
The U.S. is not buying any of it. The U.S. Commerce Department is adding Sophgo to its Entity List, which restricts trade with companies deemed a threat to national security.
Yeah, apparently it’s a national security issue.
Yah America yamudaka iyi, ichakuitayi varombo sezvirikuitika kuGerman ne Japan
In my opinion I don’t think America will always others countries to be successful in term of technology and economy I don’t think africa can be rich while the west is watching they are soo selfish and evil
So in short you’re saying first east kuma China hanty
Got to love geopolitics. The beef between China and USA is quite something. Consider TSMC, which is a Taiwanese company. China does not recognize Taiwan as a sovereign state, they claim it is a rogue Chinese province. Yet, USA imposed sanctions on China, preventing them access to Taiwanese tech. How did they make the sanctions stick? Taiwan is technically Chinese territory. It’s absurd!!!!
China is growing too fast. Since the USA can’t fully compete right now, the only thing to do is cripple China through sanctions
Well actually Taiwan is an Independent Sovereign State. But the Chinese consider it a Chinese Territory/Province just like Macau and Hong-Kong. But if you ask a Taiwanese they don’t align themselves with the Chinese whatsoever. I used to work for a Taiwanese guy. They really Hate the Chinese. Its Just like Britain and The Republic Of Ireland. So keep in mind that Taiwan is an Independent Sovereign State.
idiot Wat language is spoken in Taiwan you fool
