Muva nje, i-ejensi ye-IC Insights ukuthi i-HiSilicon, ngokusekelwe emiphumeleni yekota yokuqala ka-2020, ingene kubahlinzeki abakhulu abayishumi abakhulu bemikhiqizo ye-semiconductor ngokwemali engenayo. Ngokokuqala ngqa, umthuthukisi ovela e-China ukwazile ukwenza lokhu. Manje imithombo ithi isigaba seprosesa sika-Alibaba sihlela ukuba ngelinye lamakhasimende amakhulu e-TSMC.
Eqinisweni, inqubekelaphambili esheshayo yokuhlukaniswa kweHuawei engxenyeni ye-microprocessor ingenye yezizathu zokukhathazeka kweziphathimandla zase-US, okuthe, kusukela ngonyaka odlule, bezama ukukhawulela ukufinyelela kwe-giant yaseShayina kubuchwepheshe obuthuthukile, amalungelo engqondo okuyiwona. ilawulwa kakhulu yizinkampani zaseMelika. Ngokusho kwedatha engekho emthethweni, ingcindezi kuHuawei yaze yaphoqa inkampani ukuthi ibheke omunye usonkontileka osesimweni se-SMIC yaseShayina ukuze kukhiqizwe amaphrosesa womkhiqizo we-HiSilicon. Kunzima ukusho ukuthi isiphetho esifanayo silindele ezinye izinkampani ezithuthuka kancane ezivela eChina, kodwa zikulungele ukukhombisa izifiso zazo.
Ngonyaka odlule, iyunithi yokucubungula ye-Alibaba Group, eyayaziwa ngokuthi i-Pingtouge, Iphrosesa ye-Hanguang 800 yokusheshisa amanethiwekhi e-neural, ahlanganise ukwakheka kwe-RISC-V kanye nama-transistors ayizigidi eziyizinkulungwane eziyi-17. Le processor akufanele iqhubeke nokudayiswa, ngoba i-Alibaba ihlela ukuyisebenzisa ezixazululweni zayo zokusheshisa izinhlelo zobuhlakani bokwenziwa. Uma kucatshangelwa ukuthi ukuthuthukiswa kwezinsizakalo zefu ze-Alibaba eminyakeni ezayo ukusebenzisa amaRandi ayizigidi eziyizinkulungwane ezingama-28, bese kwethulwa ukukhiqizwa kweprosesa yayo yezinhlelo ze-AI kungenye yezigaba zokuqaliswa kwalolu hlelo.
I-DigiTimes ibika ukuthi uphiko olukhethekile lwe-Alibaba lujulisa ukubambisana nazo zombili i-TSMC kanye ne-Global Unichip, luhlela ukuba ngelinye lamakhasimende amakhulu omkhiqizi wenkontileka waseTaiwan wemikhiqizo ye-semiconductor. Ukuhlanganiswa kwemakethe yezinsizakalo ezinjalo kuye kwaholela ekuqhudelaneni okuphezulu, futhi ukuze kutholwe izilinganiso ezidingekayo zokukhiqizwa kwamaphrosesa yi-TSMC, iklayenti laseShayina kuzodingeka lenze imizamo eminingi. Into eyinhloko ukuthi izici zezombangazwe, esezivele zidala izithiyo ekuthuthukisweni kukaHuawei, aziphazamisi kule nqubo.
