China State Media Asks Nvidia to Prove H20 Chips Are Secure

China's state media has raised concerns about the security of Nvidia's H20 chips, demanding that the company provide proof of their security. The H20 chips, designed for artificial intelligence and high-performance computing, are a crucial component in China's technological infrastructure. The state media's call for assurance comes amid growing tensions between China and the United States over technology and national security. China is wary of potential vulnerabilities or backdoors in foreign-made technology, and it wants to ensure that critical components like the H20 chips are secure and trustworthy. Nvidia, a leading semiconductor company, has not yet responded publicly to the state media's request. However, the issue highlights the increasing scrutiny and geopolitical implications surrounding the global semiconductor industry, which is seen as a strategic asset by both China and the United States.
