Moonshot AI is reportedly seeking additional NVIDIA Blackwell chips to train Kimi K4, according to MetaEra. The company previously used NVIDIA hardware for Kimi K3 despite U.S. export restrictions. This development could influence altcoins to watch as open interest in AI-linked tokens increases. The situation underscores ongoing concerns regarding U.S. export controls and China’s advancements in AI.
ME AI reports that Moonshot AI is seeking to acquire more NVIDIA Blackwell AI chips to train its next-generation Kimi K4 model. The report notes that Moonshot AI previously used NVIDIA chips to train Kimi K3, despite U.S. export controls prohibiting the shipment of advanced AI chips to China. If the information is accurate, it suggests that Chinese AI companies are still able to access NVIDIA’s latest-generation AI chips, raising further questions about the effectiveness of U.S. export restrictions on advanced AI hardware. Analysts believe this will intensify concerns in the U.S. market about Chinese AI models rapidly closing the gap with leading models such as OpenAI and Anthropic. (Source: BlockBeats)
