Nvidia raised concerns about Huawei's growing AI capabilities to US lawmakers 

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang discussed concerns with Huawei Technologies Co.'s growing artificial intelligence capabilities with US lawmakers, according to a senior congressional committee staff source.

The issues were raised during a closed-door meeting between Nvidia executives and the US House of Representatives Foreign Affairs Committee. Among the topics discussed were Huawei's artificial intelligence chips and how restrictions on Nvidia's chips in China could make Huawei's chips more competitive.

"If DeepSeek R1 had been trained on (Huawei chips) or a future open-source Chinese model had been trained to be highly optimised for Huawei chips, that would risk creating a global market demand for Huawei chips," the senior staff source said.
