Import substitution strategy in China’s semiconductor industry
China’s State Internet Information Office banned Chinese technology companies from purchasing Nvidia chips for AI computations. This occurs amid strengthening strategy to develop domestic industry to compete with the US.
The regulator demanded ByteDance, Alibaba and other companies cease testing and procurement of RTX Pro 6000D accelerators. Which Nvidia developed specifically for the Chinese market. Although some companies had planned to order tens of thousands of these accelerators and already begun testing them with Nvidia server suppliers.
This ban goes beyond previous recommendations focused on the H20 graphics processor. The decision was made after Chinese regulators determined that domestic chips achieved performance comparable to Nvidia models for China.
Beijing is pressuring technology companies, demanding they stimulate the domestic semiconductor industry. And reduce dependence on Nvidia to compete with the US in artificial intelligence. Regulators held meetings with Huawei, Cambricon, Alibaba and Baidu to compare their products with Nvidia chips. All confirmed that Chinese AI chips achieved comparable or superior levels.

Interesting concept of AI economy is presented in new Google DeepMind research. Link in description. Scientists analyzed rapidly forming reality. In which AI agents transform into independent economic players, capable of trading, negotiating and creating value without direct human participation. And if this process remains without proper control, autonomous systems may form their own parallel economy, closely connected to human one. Which carries both enormous opportunities and serious risks.
