MODERATORS
Huawei's chip was impressive, but not for the reasons you think.
It was based off an existing chip design originally intended for cryptocurrency mining and made using old fab technology that China still had access to post sanctions.
It was impressive because they did push the old fab technology to new levels, but also probably pretty close to its technical limitations.
