US Considers Tightening Restrictions on AI Chip Exports to China Amid Growing Concerns - WSJ

The United States is considering imposing new restrictions on the export of artificial intelligence (AI) chips to China, according to sources. The Commerce Department may halt shipments of chips made by companies like Nvidia and Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) to Chinese customers as early as July. This move comes as U.S. chipmakers, including Nvidia, Micron, and AMD, find themselves caught in the crossfire between China and the Biden administration. The proposed restrictions would even ban the sale of Nvidia's A800 chips without a special U.S. export license.
