hotaru251 so basically becoming middle man and using specific peoples needs to leverage better deal i assume is point of it. Reply
bit_user The article said: … If the newly proposed regulation becomes a law … I'm confused. Is this an internal policy of the Executive Branch or a Bill being drafted for Congress to vote on? The only way it can become a law is by Congress passing it and the President signing it. Yet, I got the impression this is a policy being finalized internally. Which is it? P.S. I checked Bloomberg, but the article is paywalled. Reply
SkyBill40 Art of the Deal? Or something like it? I'm sure that neither Jensen Huang nor Lisa Su are going to like this one as it could directly impact their business. It may make sense, but it's hard to imagine how this is going to be beneficial. If those countries want those AI products… they're still going to find a way. Reply
thestryker bit_user said: I'm confused. Is this an internal policy of the Executive Branch or a Bill being drafted for Congress to vote on? The source article doesn't really specify on this point, but it sounds like it's commerce department regulation. US officials have written draft regulations that would restrict AI chip shipments to anywhere in the world without American approval, giving Washington broad control over whether other countries can build facilities for training and running artificial-intelligence models — and under what conditions. … President Donald Trump’s team has said repeatedly that they want the world to use American AI, and the draft rules aren’t meant to function as an Nvidia export ban. Rather, the regulation would set up the US government as gatekeeper for the AI industry: Companies — and in some cases, their governments — would have to seek the blessing of the US Commerce Department to buy the precious accelerators.
