Foreign media: The Dark Side of the Moon may use Nvidia Blackwell chips to train Kimi models. The effectiveness of US export controls is being questioned again

Comparatively, according to The Information quoting people familiar with the matter, Moonshot AI (Moonshot AI) is seeking to obtain more Nvidia Blackwell AI chips to train the next Kimi K4 model. The report said that Dark Side of the Moon also used Nvidia chips when training Kimi K3 before, although US export controls prohibited the export of advanced AI chips to China.

The report pointed out that if the relevant news is true, it means that Chinese AI companies can still obtain Nvidia's latest generation AI chip resources, and the US may once again face doubts about the effectiveness of advanced AI chips. Analysts believe that this will further exacerbate the concerns of the US market that Chinese AI models will quickly catch up with leading models such as OpenAI and Anthropic.
