🇺🇸 Bloomberg reported that Nvidia sold AI chips to Megaspeed International through hardware manufacturing partners. However, when Bloomberg reviewed trade data, it found that Megaspeed received approximately 50,000 more chips than the number Nvidia reported to the U.S. government, worth billions of dollars. Nvidia explained that the unaccounted chips were stored at other Megaspeed warehouses, but did not disclose how many chips had been verified. Additionally, in 2025, Nvidia’s general counsel contacted the U.S. government to inquire whether the U.S. was involved in the detention of Alice Huang in Singapore. Subsequently, U.S. investigators were required to seek approval from superiors before contacting Nvidia and were restricted from mentioning Megaspeed in external communications. The U.S. Department of Justice also requested a pause in the investigation into suspected AI chip smuggling by Megaspeed.
