America banned the sale of chip design tools to China. Companies such as Xiaomi cannot access advanced technology for making processors. The Chinese Academy of Science created QiMeng to solve this problem. The system uses artificial intelligence to design computer chips without human help. Scientists finished two processors but they match very old designs.

QiMeng means enlightenment and works through three connected layers. The bottom layer uses large language models for chip design. The middle section handles hardware and software development. The top part runs different processor applications for various needs. Scientists made two chips that equal Intel 486 and ARM Cortex-A53 processors.

The research paper explains several challenges that limit QiMeng performance. China lacks advanced manufacturing equipment and cutting-edge machines. Limited resources prevent scientists from using the system at full capacity. The country must use older lithography technology instead of modern methods. Huawei partner SiCarrier builds machines to compete with Dutch company ASML.
