According to sources, Chinese AI chip companies like MetaX and Enflame are reportedly designing less powerful processors to continue accessing Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co (TSMC) production amidst U.S. sanctions on sophisticated processors. The restrictions are aimed at hindering China's advancements in artificial intelligence and supercomputing. The recent U.S. export controls have exposed China's limited capacity for advanced chips and its reliance on TSMC, leading companies like MetaX and Enflame to submit downgraded chip designs to comply with the regulations.
