Experts worry about Nvidia's AI chip sales in China and influence over Trump
Ars Technica 2 weeks ago 12
Nvidia’s RTX Pro 5500 chips may be getting a path into China as China’s oversight ministry asks major AI firms to share plans to buy them. The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology is considering allowing imports of “perhaps millions” more banned chips over the next year. This could increase access to Nvidia hardware for China’s AI workloads while the broader US–China trade and potential rare-earth retaliation risks remain unresolved.
