🇺🇸A Super Micro contractor pleaded guilty to conspiring to reroute servers containing NVIDIA AI chips to China.

The supplied reports identify the contractor as Ting-Wei “Willy” Sun (孙廷伟), associated with Super Micro Computer (超微计算机公司). According to the reported court records, Sun pleaded guilty on Thursday in federal district court in Manhattan, with a court filing on Friday documenting the development.

The conspiracy concerned illegal exports to China of computer servers containing advanced NVIDIA (英伟达) AI chips. The hardware described is complete servers incorporating the chips, rather than a separately quantified shipment of standalone GPUs.

The Financial_Express report says prosecutors charged Sun and two other Super Micro-associated individuals, including a co-founder, in March over an alleged scheme involving approximately $2.5 billion of U.S. AI technology. That amount describes the broader alleged scheme; the supplied material does not establish it as Sun’s individual transaction value or provide dispositions for the other defendants.

The source set contains summaries of the court docket and filing, not the underlying court documents. It does not provide a sentence, forfeiture amount, detailed plea terms, server count, or specific NVIDIA chip models.
