China's AI chip blitz arms Xi with a message for Trump: 'You can't choke us off'

Summary

Chinese President Xi Jinping opened his first U.S. state visit in over a decade with a run of AI chip and model launches from Huawei and Alibaba. Huawei said its Ascent 960DT will ship in the first quarter of 2027, three quarters ahead of schedule, and Alibaba's chip unit unveiled the Zhenwu V900, which triples its predecessor's performance. Analysts say the launches show China's AI progress is slowed by U.S. export controls but not stopped.
