Huawei's Ascend 910C: A Contender in the AI Chip Race?
2025-02-05

Huawei's Ascend 910C AI training chip, while lagging behind Nvidia's offerings in large model training, achieves 60% of the H100's inference performance, according to DeepSeek research. Further optimizations can improve its efficiency. Despite US sanctions and technological limitations, the Ascend 910C reduces China's reliance on Nvidia GPUs. However, long-term training stability remains a weakness, requiring further improvements in Huawei's hardware and software stack to compete globally.
