The final rule aims to block U.S. investments in sensitive technologies such as semiconductors and AI that could enhance China's military capabilities, with enforcement starting Jan. 2.
Investments into AI systems for high-risk uses, particularly those dealing with biological data, are prohibited, highlighting a strong focus on national security.
The rule is a response to gaps in current federal laws, which restricted physical goods but overlooked cash flows financing key sectors critical to national security.
Specific transactions banned include U.S. investments in advanced semiconductor firms and land purchases in China for quantum R&D, significantly impacting U.S.-China economic dynamics.
