US Probes Smuggling of NVIDIA Advanced Chips; Alibaba Dismisses Involvement
08 May 2026 17:19
A company linked to Thailand's national AI program is suspected of assisting in the smuggling of Super Micro Computer, Inc. (SMCI.US)'s servers equipped with advanced chips from NVIDIA (NVDA.US) to China, with a total value of tens of billions of US dollars, Bloomberg reported, quoting people with the knowledge of the matter. BABA-W (09988.HK)(BABA.US) was reportedly one of the end customers.

In response, a spokesperson for Alibaba stated that the company has no business dealings with Super Micro Computer, OBON, or any third-party intermediaries allegedly involved in the accusations, and has never participated in any suspected smuggling activities.

The spokesperson added that Alibaba currently does not use, and has never used, any restricted NVIDIA chips in its data centers.
