          You are saying AMD, NVIDIA and Intel aren’t the best in the world at designing chips? TSMC definitely has the best for manufacture, and ARM definitely is in the top league, but clearly the US companies are no slouches.

            Until they put 100%+ tariffs on them making it more expensive than the existing industry because it would cost too much for them to compete.

            Just look at why the US can’t get chinese EVs and how mich lower performance and higher prices we have.

            So much for a “free market.” Not in my monopolies!

        Doesn’t matter tho if they stop producing consumer grade stuff lol. Chinas GPUs are produced using domestically produced chips, afaik. And if China won’t use them solely for AI as well, I think they can have a good chance to fill the gap of consumer grade GPUs left by nvidia, Intel and AMD. At least for the low and midrange GPUs.

          I mean, building hardware for efficient inference and building gaming GPUs is more or less the same thing. Get better at one thing, get better at the other. It’s not like the US companies aren’t innovating, they’re just optimising for one thing.
