DeepSeek Unveils AI Chip Software Developed With Huawei

DeepSeek has announced the release of software developed jointly with Huawei Technologies to program artificial intelligence chips, highlighting close cooperation between the two Chinese companies.

The tools are designed for Huawei’s AI chips. Their release puts a spotlight on the software needed to make such hardware usable, alongside the development of the chips themselves.

The collaboration underscores the companies’ role in developing technologies that could compete with the ecosystem built around US chipmaker Nvidia. Software support is an important part of that effort, helping developers put AI processors to work.

The announcement signals a further step in the DeepSeek-Huawei partnership, though it does not by itself establish how the new tools compare with Nvidia’s offerings in performance or adoption.
