Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang welcomed the U.S. government's decision that allows the computing giant to sell its H20 artificial intelligence chips to the Chinese market, noting that his company will word hard in the face of growing competition from Chinese chip makers.
Huang last week met with U.S. President Donald Trump and lawmakers in Washington D.C. The CEO on Monday announced that his company plans to resume selling the H20 to China when promoting AI technology in China.
However, he stressed that the days of Nvidia's total market dominance are already left to history.
"The Chinese chips are advancing very quickly and so we will have to do our best," said Huang.
With AI technology rapidly becoming ubiquitous in China, both in everyday life and for commercial and industrial applications, Huang expressed optimism that the chip will attract customers.
"I'm very happy that the export control, the ban, has been lifted on H20, so that we can serve the market. As you know, the AI models recently have advanced very greatly, DeepSeek-R1, Alibaba's Qwen, Moonshot. And these models are very advanced. And the inference requirement, the processing requirement is very high. And Nvidia's H20 hopper architecture is really ideal for that. And the demand is so great across all of the services. Of course, we have a lot of competition, so we have to work hard," said the CEO.
"Competition is good. We want customers to have choice and we want to make sure that whatever customers have and the market has is the best in the world. And so we have to keep working hard for our customers," he said.
Huang visited China to attend the opening ceremony of the third China International Supply Chain Expo on Wednesday and participate in related activities. This is Huang's third visit to China since the start of 2025.
