中国科技巨头DeepSeek和华为宣布合作开发半导体软件。这是中国为减少对美国芯片制造商的依赖、挑战美国人工智能主导地位而采取的一系列努力的一部分。
Chinese tech giants DeepSeek and Huawei announced a partnership to develop semiconductor software, part of an array of efforts to reduce China’s reliance on US chipmakers and challenge American AI dominance.
尽管美国企业被普遍认为在人工智能硬件和软件竞赛中领先，但竞争格局正在发生变化：中国阿里巴巴最近发布了一款芯片，并称其为该国迄今最强大的芯片；一家大型存储芯片制造商表示，正批量生产旨在挑战行业巨头的全新设计；中国研究人员也表示，尽管美国限制他们获取尖端芯片制造设备，他们在研发高度先进的半导体方面仍取得了进展。
Though US firms are widely seen as leading the hardware and software race surrounding AI, the scales are tipping: China’s Alibaba recently unveiled what it said was the country’s most powerful chip ever, a major memory chipmaker said it was mass-producing new designs to challenge industry heavyweights, and Chinese researchers said they were making progress in building highly advanced semiconductors, despite US restrictions on them accessing cutting-edge chipmaking equipment.
