Yu Ji
季宇
Yu Ji (季宇) is the founder and CEO of Xingyun Integrated Circuit (行云集成电路), which he started in 2023 to develop ultra-large-memory GPU chips around the needs of large models — an AI chip venture he has framed as understanding, deconstructing, and ultimately challenging NVIDIA . Before founding the company, he was selected for Huawei's "Genius Youth" program and worked at HiSilicon on AI chip compiler design and optimization . He appeared in 暗涌Waves' 2024 "Under 36" list at age 30, and per a 5Y Capital (峰瑞资本) piece, Xingyun's stated ambition is to push AI democratization — in Yu's framing, "bringing the market back to a golden age where people are more expensive than machines" .
