South Korea says Nvidia’s planned and contracted GPU deliveries will continue despite controversy around the company’s chief executive Jensen Huang, who resigned. Seoul’s science ministry says it has received confirmation from Nvidia that supply commitments remain intact, and officials expect no disruption to shipments.
The announcements relate to a broader partnership aimed at building large-scale AI “computing” infrastructure in South Korea. Korea Times reports that Nvidia had planned up to 260,000 GPUs for the country in cooperation with major Korean companies, including Samsung Electronics, SK Group, Hyundai Motor Group and Naver Cloud, with each establishing its own AI computing centers powered by Nvidia’s latest Blackwell GPUs. Other outlets focus on Seoul’s expectation that deliveries proceed as scheduled, including reporting that some funded GPUs have already arrived and are in use.
Across coverage, the central point is continuity of GPU supply for AI-related projects, while outlets differ mainly in emphasis—some foreground Nvidia’s confirmation and the scale and partners involved, while others highlight the assurances from South Korean officials and specific points about contracted deliveries and the status of already funded shipments.
