Online reports claim that NVIDIA is planning to leverage Groq's LPU technology to develop a custom AI inference chip for the Chinese market, with small-volume shipments expected as early as the end of this year. In response, NVIDIA swiftly denied the rumors, with a spokesperson stating that reports about NVIDIA's LPU are inaccurate. The company is not currently selling LPUs in the Chinese market, nor does its product roadmap include LPU products targeted at China.
