You might have heard before the break the president saying in the press conference that that

that invidia h20 chip is obsolete but said there's still a market for them in china and that comes after

Chinese state media accused them of being a national security risk because of potential backdoors.

Our unis yun has more on that in today's tech check hey unis

hey carl well looks as though the relationship between China and Nvidia's H20 chip is very complicated.

The messaging out of China recently has been that the H20, which is a chip that the Chinese

want to have, could be bad for the country.

So in several posts by a social media account that's linked to Chinese

State TV, the Chinese were suggesting that the Chinese don't actually have to buy this

particular chip. Yu Yan Teng Teng Kyiang called the H20, far from safe for China. It says

that Nvidia needs to substantiate its claims that it has no so-called backdoors in those chips.

It alleges that installing backdoors is a condition by the U.S. government to easing its export curbs and allowing NVIDIA to sell into China.

NVIDIA issued a statement saying NVIDIA does not have back doors in our chips

that would give anyone a remote way to access or control them.

Now, the Chinese tech companies here count as some of the biggest clients for

Nvidia.

The H20 is the industry standard here in China.

It's not the best for training. So in that way,

President Trump is right that this is one that doesn't have as much processing power. But at the

same time, it is really good at inferencing. So this means that the chip is able to recall information.

And it just so happens that the Chinese industry depends very heavily on inference, especially

when it comes to DeepSeek.
