U.S. Lawmakers Push to Curb Nvidia Chip Exports to China

U.S. lawmakers want stricter export controls on Nvidia chips after learning that Chinese AI company DeepSeek used them. They are urging restrictions on Nvidia's H20 chip and similar ones, as well as tighter rules on shipments to Singapore to prevent unauthorized transfers. The concern arose after DeepSeek revealed its AI model R1, which it claims was built using less powerful chips at a lower cost than U.S. models. This raised alarms, as the U.S. had already placed export restrictions to stop China from advancing its military and surveillance AI. Nvidia says it follows all government rules and that its chips meet the limits set by U.S. regulators.

China’s DeepSeek Sparks Debate After Disrupting Global Tech

China’s DeepSeek AI Faces Scrutiny Over Bold Claims Chinese AI startup DeepSeek has made headlines by unveiling its AI model, R1, which it claims was built for just $5.6 million using 2,000 Nvidia H800 GPUs. This announcement challenges the dominance of US tech giants like OpenAI and Google, which have spent hundreds of millions on similar AI models. DeepSeek’s claim also raises doubts about the effectiveness of US export restrictions on advanced AI chips. Skeptics, however, question the feasibility of such a low-budget AI breakthrough. Some argue that DeepSeek may have had access to more powerful chips and hidden funding. OpenAI’s GPT-4, for example, reportedly cost over $100 million to train, using an estimated 25,000 high-end Nvidia H100 GPUs. Critics, including Oculus VR founder Pa...
