Senators call on Trump to continue banning Nvidia from selling its best chips in China
"We cannot allow China to leap ahead of us and bolster their weapons capabilities, maximize their cyberattacks against American industry, and threaten long-term U.S. economic and national security,"
"This bipartisan resolution sets us on a path toward a different future - one in which frontier AI systems are built in the United States by American companies."
"China is going to win the AI race,"
"inability to make and access computing power is the main impediment to its progress."
Senators Chris Coons and Tom Cotton introduced a bipartisan resolution urging measures to deny China access to the United States' most advanced AI chips, cloud infrastructure, and models to preserve U.S. technological primacy and national security. The resolution cites China's efforts to close the AI gap and warns that China's inability to make and access computing power is the main impediment to its progress. The senators call for continued enforcement of export controls to prevent sales of high-end chips, including Nvidia's Blackwell, after a presidential remark suggested possible sales to China. Nvidia's CEO warned that China may win the AI race, citing lower energy costs and fewer regulations.
