Senators Jim Banks and Elizabeth Warren criticized Nvidia's reported plan to open a research facility in Shanghai, citing substantial national security and economic concerns. They reacted to a Financial Times report indicating the firm's plans to expand and hire AI talent in China. Nvidia disputed the claim, stating the facility merely accommodates existing employees. The senators warned that sensitive information might be jeopardized and urged the company to align its innovation efforts with democratic allies to safeguard U.S. security interests.
Nvidia's great financial and technology success was built on American innovation, American university research funded by taxpayers, and the capital, security, and freedom we provide.
The center could result in sensitive information being leaked, stolen or otherwise transferred to China, according to Senators Banks and Warren.
