NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ:NVDA) shipped 678,000 AI data center chips in China in the six months to June, down 44% from a year ago, the Reuters report said. This also saw Nvidia's China market share of AI chips fall to 34%.
The drop was driven chiefly by Washington continuing to restrict the company from selling its most advanced AI chips to China. Beijing also largely balked at the small pool of chips that Washington did approve, approving limited amounts of local sales.
