華為達文西計劃 投入研發AI芯片

華為製定新計劃加碼人工智能芯片，外媒披露，華為已經啟動代號「達文西」的項目，更由副董事長徐直軍親自領導，開發新的AI芯片。
The Information報導，達文西計劃是華為透過AI發展業務的一項嘗試，華為希望將AI運用在旗下的手機、雲端、數據中心、基地台、攝影機設備當中，當前華為大力推廣的城市智能化項目「安全城市」便和達文西計劃息息相關。
報導稱，擔任華為旗下IC設計公司海思董事長的徐直軍是達文西計劃的領導人，他同時也是華為當前的輪值董事長，從中可看出華為對達文西計劃的重視。開發AI芯片是該項目的關鍵工作之一，雖然海思已研發過智能型手機的AI芯片，但在如服務器等項目上，華為目前仍使用輝達的芯片來增加機器AI功能。
報導引述華為一位經理說法稱，華為希望逐步減少對如輝達等美國公司的依賴，且華為在與客戶洽談建立網絡、數據中心時，若能為其提供AI功能，那就能多一項競爭優勢。
或許是眼見同行中興通訊遭受到美國禁售令後的窘境，使華為等中國大陸企業已經開始思考如何減少美國依賴、增加芯片比重，如中國大陸互聯網巨頭百度近期也公佈自主研發的芯片「崑崙」 。 (工商時報)
