Baidu, Inc. (NASDAQ:BIDU<\/strong><\/a>) is one of the best very cheap stocks to buy according to hedge funds<\/strong><\/a>. On August 22, Kunlunxin, a Chinese semiconductor firm majority-owned by Baidu (59%), announced it had secured over 1 billion yuan ($139 million) in AI chip orders for China Mobile. The chips, compatible with Nvidia\u2019s CUDA platform, will be supplied to top-tier vendors like H3C Technologies and ZTE, as China intensifies efforts to build domestic alternatives to Nvidia\u2019s GPU dominance.<\/p>\n

China Mobile also awarded contracts to a Huawei-linked firm using its CANN architecture, a CUDA equivalent. While developers still rely heavily on Nvidia\u2019s ecosystem, Kunlunxin\u2019s chips offer strong CUDA compatibility, making them more cost-effective for developers transitioning away from foreign tech.<\/p>\n

Earlier this year, Baidu revealed it had deployed 30,000 third-generation P800 Kunlun chips to support large-scale AI model training. Alongside Huawei\u2019s Ascend, Baidu\u2019s Kunlun chips are part of a growing wave of Chinese-made GPUs aiming to challenge Nvidia\u2019s market share and bolster national tech self-sufficiency.<\/p>\n

Baidu, Inc. (NASDAQ:BIDU) is a major technology company in China, best known for operating the country\u2019s most popular search engine. It\u2019s also a leader in artificial intelligence, investing significant effort and resources in developing smart technologies that power everything from online services to self-driving cars.<\/p>\n
