Nvidia's CEO: Models developed in China, including DeepSeek, Alibaba, and Tencent, are world-class in quality.
Nvidia's CEO Jensen Huang has praised the quality of AI models developed in China, including those from DeepSeek, Alibaba, and Tencent. Speaking at a recent event, Huang noted that these models are world-class and that China is a significant player in the global AI market [1].
Huang's remarks come as Nvidia has been working to secure approval from the Trump administration to sell its advanced H20 computer chips to China. The company's CEO stated that the U.S. government has assured Nvidia that licenses will be granted, and deliveries are expected to start soon [1].
The Chinese AI industry has been rapidly advancing, with companies like Moonshot AI and Alibaba releasing open-source AI models. Moonshot AI's Kimi K2 model, for instance, has been praised for its enhanced coding capabilities and performance in general agent tasks [2]. Similarly, Alibaba's Qwen3 series of models have been noted for their competitive performance in math and coding tasks [3].
Huang's comments also highlight the growing competition between the U.S. and China in the AI sector. The U.S. has been tightening controls on the export of advanced technology to China, citing national security concerns. However, Huang has argued that such restrictions can hinder U.S. competition in the leading-edge sector and push other countries toward China's AI technology [1].
Despite the ongoing trade rivalry, Huang believes that Nvidia's technology can benefit both markets. He has stated that the company's mission is to make sure the American tech stack is available to markets all over the world, including China, to foster innovation and competition [4].
