Illiterate people like you should not comment on matters which they do not understand.
I am speaking with experience and exposure (IT background);
raw power means squat unless it
translate into "meaningful ends."
NVIDIA Tesla V100 is a specialized product, intended for computation and machine learning (HPC). Essentially, Tesla V100 have little utility for personal use, and suitable for use in workstations and supercomputers.
NVIDIA RTX 2080 Ti is the endgame - it can perform all functions of Tesla V100
and much more; the former is
incredibly efficient per $ even in strictly HPC role:
-
and a graphics processing powerhouse with no peer in the world, by far. Graphics processing is the domain where the true competition exist, and
the most challenging endeavor for any company to push boundaries in.
You can buy two or more RTX 2080 Ti for less price than a single Tesla V100, SLI them, and enjoy vastly superior HPC output on your PC, let alone a workstation. And not to forget, vastly superior graphics processing.

Now, shall I remind you from where Huawei source components for its hardware? Two American firms involved. This is common practice in China - a Chinese company imports products from US, assemble them, label them as "Made in China" and voila - consumer base is happy.
While Huawei might have developed a more powerful HPC-oriented product than Tesla V100, the comparison shown in the original article is ambiguous in the absence of real-world computations in various applications. Huawei should hand over its product to neutral sources for proper evaluation. If it is good, it will shine. And NVIDIA will get the memo. Otherwise, hot air.

On a side note: irrespective of your nationality, if you do not respect NVIDIA and its contributions to computing industry since its birth - you are not fit to partake in computer-related discussions. Stay out and shove your political biases elsewhere.
