Nvidia H200 AI Chips Sold to Chinese Defence-Linked University Despite US Blacklist

Northwestern Polytechnical University, a Chinese defence-focused institution on the US export blacklist, bought two H200 AI chips from Nvidia for $123,000, sparking scrutiny over Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang's alleged ties to a Chinese spy. The purchase was made through a domestic supplier, bypassing normal export licence approvals. The move raises concerns about China's access to advanced AI technology.
