Nvidia CEO praises China’s open-source models as ‘very advanced’

Open source was “extremely powerful” for AI innovation and Chinese firms offer the “best open reasoning models”, Nvidia co-founder and CEO Jensen Huang said in Beijing on Thursday, ahead of the expected resumption of the company’s H20 chip sales to China.

Open source allows not just the contribution of each company but the combined resource of an ecosystem, which is what was “very clever about open source engineering here in China”, Huang said at the China International Supply Chain Expo.
