KUALA LUMPUR: The Ministry of Investment, Trade and Industry (MITI) is verifying with relevant agencies to see whether any local laws have been breached following reports of a Chinese company using Nvidia-powered artificial intelligence (AI) chips for Large Language Model (LLM) training in Malaysia.
In a statement today, MITI said that servers using Nvidia chips and AI chips are not classified as controlled goods under the Malaysian Strategic Trade Act 2010 (STA 2010).
