Russian media: The Gobi Desert will become the heart of the world!
China will become a major neural superpower on Earth.
On August 19, the Russian publication "China Today" published an article.
At the edge of the Gobi Desert in Inner Mongolia, China is secretly building a massive data center complex.
This project aims to make China the leader in the field of artificial intelligence by 2030.
According to Bloomberg, the project plans to build 39 data centers.
It is estimated that these centers will be equipped with more than 115,000 graphics processing units, including the latest H100 and H200 models.
These processors are considered the gold standard for training large language models - such as ChatGPT or China's DeepSeek.
As early as 2022, the United States was worried about China's technological advances and banned the supply of advanced chips.
The question of how Chinese companies obtained more than 115,000 chips remains unresolved.
But obviously, China has found a way to bypass US sanctions.
Nvidia continues to claim that it complies with all US sanctions, but the company's Jason Huang does not hide his dissatisfaction with Washington's policies.
According to him, years of restrictions "failed" to curb Huawei's growth.
The Trump administration further restricted the types of chips Nvidia could sell in China, which caused the company a loss of $5.5 billion.
However, nothing can stop China's development: Chinese companies have already started using Huawei's new AI chip, the 910C.
Huawei plans to mass-produce these chips in the coming months: these chips will become the basis for training the latest neural networks.
It is reported that China's best neural network, DeepSeek, is running on Huawei's chips.
Rather than buying the most advanced chips in the United States, China focuses more on efficiency and innovation.
The influence of China in the field of neural networks is growing globally.
Chinese companies provide full access to the neural networks they create, accelerating their spread worldwide, and thus creating "technological soft power".
The development of neural networks is also a national priority for China.
Currently, China is implementing the "East Data West Calculation" project, whose essence is to reallocate computing resources from the eastern, coastal, and densely populated provinces to relatively underdeveloped western regions.
This makes electricity usage more optimized and reduces the burden on the environment.
Chinese AI network developers can also enjoy favorable living conditions, children's education, and research funding.
In summary, China has created all the conditions to truly become a major "neural power" in the world.
