Huawei Technologies announced plans to launch two new artificial-intelligence semiconductors in 2027, aiming to challenge US chipmaker Nvidia. Chairman David Wang stated that the 960DT will be released in the first quarter and the Ascend 960PR in the third quarter of 2027. The company is also developing a technology called UnifiedBus to enable AI chips to work together as one larger computing system.

Huawei's largest linked systems, called superclusters, can support up to 1 million AI processors, and they have shipped over 1,000 smaller linked systems, called supernodes, to more than 370 customers. Huawei's AI chip ecosystem currently has 5,270 monthly active developers, giving it a strong developer base to make its hardware easier to use.
