China Sets Goal to Boost Computing Power 50% by 2025 to Stay Competitive with U.S. in AI and Supercomputing

China aims to increase computing power by 50% by 2025 to reach 300 exaflops, keeping pace with the U.S. in AI and supercomputing.

Increased computing power will support AI development and drive economic growth in sectors like finance and education.

China plans to focus on expanding memory, data storage, networks, and data centers.

Supply chain security will be strengthened to reduce reliance on foreign tech like chips.

U.S. sanctions restricting access to advanced AI chips like GPUs could hinder China meeting its computing goals.
