China's Tech Giants Look Local for Chips

So, get this! It looks like China's biggest tech companies are starting to use chips made right there at home. Why? Well, apparently, they're running out of those Nvidia chips everyone talks about, and the US is making it tougher to get 'em.

Yeah, so big names like Alibaba, Tencent, and Baidu? They're reportedly trying out different chips instead. This is all because there's a huge need for AI stuff in China right now. Pretty interesting, huh? I mean, what does this mean for the chip world down the road?
