Global Times, quoting a Reuters report, notes that the Biden Administration chip-war against China is creating anger and resistance from U.S. industrial sectors. It writes: “Washington’s ‘small yard and high fence’ strategy appears increasingly unsustainable, as the growing rift between the US government’s containment policy and the interests of American tech businesses has become public and irreconcilable.”
The article references the news that the Biden administration is planning to issue a last-minute rule titled ‘Export Control Framework for Artificial Intelligence Diffusion’ that would control global access to artificial intelligence (AI) chips (see separate report). This decision is being opposed by the Information Technology Industry Council, representing companies like Amazon, Microsoft and Meta, as well as the Semiconductor Industry Association.
