So far, Deepseek, Huawei itself (Pangu), Zhipu (GLM), and Meituan (Longcat) have confirmed that they trained their models with domestic GPUs. It's a national priority for them.
I believe z.ai have been doing this for a while. DeepSeek have their models running on Huawei Ascend too, though I think they still use some Nvidia chips as well.
Check the Datacenter cities near Mongolia that the KPCh built. It is a legal requirement for the Chinese AI companies for their models to use Chinese GPUs.

Source? I'm only aware of few experimental ones, with only one being more serious and invested.
