Chinese tech firm SenseTime has initiated a collaborative project, the Galaxy Project, aimed at developing and scaling domestic AI chip infrastructure in China. The project involves nearly 20 partners and is centered around a closed-loop system that integrates chip-level technology with its ecosystem. The initiative is part of SenseTime's efforts to drive innovation and growth in the domestic AI chip market. This development matters as it could have significant implications for China's technological self-sufficiency and competitiveness in the global AI chip market.
