Nvidia's H20 AI Chips Avoid Export Controls After Deal with Trump
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang has reportedly negotiated with the Trump administration to avoid export restrictions on the H20 AI chips, crucial for U.S.-China tech relations. This agreement includes Huang's commitment to invest in U.S. AI data centers. The H20 chips, modified for lower performance, were previously at risk due to their use in training an open AI model in China. Despite bipartisan calls for restrictions, this deal allows Nvidia to continue exports, potentially undermining U.S. dominance in AI. The Trump administration retains prior export rules imposed under Biden, complicating the situation further.
