美國對高階AI晶片實施出口管制,中國國產替代晶片在良率與軟體生態系統上難以取代Nvidia的CUDA架構,導致中國科技企業面臨算力不足的困境。

〔編譯陳成良/綜合報導〕英國《金融時報》(FT)最新調查披露,面對美國日益嚴格的高階人工智慧(AI)晶片出口管制,以及國產替代晶片效能難以達標的雙重困境,中國科技巨頭陷入極度嚴峻的「算力飢渴」。為維持AI模型運作,中國科技企業今年以來已在市場上大舉收購超過100萬顆輝達(Nvidia)電競與工作站級處理器,透過拆解改裝的方式硬湊成AI運算叢集。
報導指出,這批大量流入中國的晶片主要為輝達GeForce RTX系列等消費級電競顯卡,原本設計用途是驅動高階電腦遊戲與3D繪圖,並非用於建構複雜的資料中心大型語言模型。然而,由於美國商務部全面切斷輝達H100、Blackwell等頂級資料中心GPU直接銷往中國的管道,加上華為等中國本土晶片在生產良率與軟體生態系統上仍難以取代輝達的CUDA架構,逼得中國業者只能走偏鋒,轉向未被全面封死的消費級硬體市場大舉掃貨。

土法煉鋼拆解拼裝難擋算力落差
業內工程師與供應鏈知情人士透露,中國各地工廠正透過「土法煉鋼」的改裝產線,將這些電競顯卡的核心運算元件與記憶體顆粒從原本的電路板上拆下,再重新焊接安裝到客製化的伺服器基板上。
不過,半導體專家直言,消費級遊戲晶片缺乏資料中心專用的高頻寬互連技術,晶片之間傳輸資料的速度受到物理限制,將大量遊戲卡拼湊成叢集不僅散熱困難、能耗極高,且在進行大規模模型訓練時,實際運算效率遠遠落後於正規AI伺服器。
這波由中國大型科技公司與新創團隊引發的收購狂潮,已大幅推升相關高階遊戲顯卡在亞洲市場的報價與走私風險。《金融時報》分析,這項調查直接戳破了北京官方宣稱「國產晶片已足以支撐AI發展」的大外宣神話,凸顯中國在算力命脈上依然無法擺脫對美系先進技術的高度依賴;而中企利用消費級產品改裝規避管制的舉動,也正引發華府國安與貿易監管部門的高度警戒。

From October 14th to 16th, the 2026 Artificial Intelligence Industry Conference was held in Jinan. This is the first time that a national AI conference has left Beijing. Shandong, which has all 41 major industrial categories, is accelerating the promotion of new industrialization empowered by artificial intelligence by overcoming the three test questions of industrial corpus, model credibility and industry collaboration.

Meta announced that Facebook has launched a new AI function "Your Algorithm", which combines a large language model to allow users to adjust dynamic news and Reels recommended content in real time through conversations, solving the problem of past system misjudgment of preferences.

A user posted on Reddit that the Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses record daily conversations without starting them up and save them as audio files and verbatim transcripts, involving second- and third-generation models. Meta confirmed that the anomaly has been fixed but did not explain the cause or scope of the impact, raising privacy and security concerns.

The Ministry of Digital Development has promoted Taiwan’s sovereign AI training corpus and collected private corpus on a voluntary basis. Currently, it only includes low-controversial content such as public books and book introductions, and has not yet been included in the news media. Legislators are concerned about whether media rights will be affected if news content is expanded in the future, and require the Ministry of Data and Information Technology to explain the authorization, payment mechanism and the direction of protecting the rights and interests of content providers.

Apple has launched the 7-inch HomeView smart display, priced at US$299. It aims to become the hub of family life, integrating entertainment, communication and smart home control. However, because the price is higher than competing products, compatibility is not fully guaranteed, Siri AI is still in the beta stage, and Taiwan is not listed in the first wave of sales regions, it has caused foreign media and consumers to question its practicality and purchase value.

Although artificial intelligence translation performs well when processing proverbs and daily texts, serious errors still occur in professional fields such as law and medicine, such as mistranslation of units or legal terms, leading to potentially significant consequences. Experts warn that even smooth translation does not mean accuracy, and human proofreading is still indispensable.
