Chinese AI startups are adapting to U.S. export restrictions that limit their access to advanced AI chips by focusing on alternative strategies. These companies are working on monetization, writing more efficient code for large language models, and developing smaller models. Despite being cut off from the world's most advanced chips, Chinese AI firms are pushing forward with innovation. Industry pioneers suggest that profitability is possible without the latest hardware, as startups emphasize software improvements over hardware dependencies.
