Alibaba unveils AI chip, stepping up its push into proprietary technology

Alibaba has announced a new processor dedicated to artificial intelligence, which it describes as the most powerful developed in China. The company also says the chip delivers three times the performance of its predecessor.

The launch comes as US restrictions are encouraging the development of technological alternatives within China. The ability to produce components domestically has therefore become a central issue for the sector.

The announcement intensifies competition around the chips used in AI systems. The information released highlights Alibaba’s ambition, although it does not provide technical details that would allow the new component to be compared with solutions from other manufacturers.
