Beijing Reveals U.S. Export Controls Damage U.S. Companies More than China's

Global Times posts an analysis this week of the impact of U.S. export controls on the most advanced computer chips manufacturing, and the crisis this has created for Nvidia, one of the world’s largest chip producers. “The H20 chip, which had been the primary chip Nvidia was permitted to sell in China, was effectively blocked from the market after U.S. officials informed the company last month that the product would require an export license, per Reuters,” Global Times reports. “To a certain extent, the dilemma underscores a fundamental truth: China’s role as both a critical revenue source and innovation ecosystem for Nvidia is irreplaceable. In recent years, Nvidia has reportedly had to tweak its chip offerings for the Chinese market several times in compliance with the increasingly stringent U.S. export controls on sales of advanced artificial intelligence (AI) chips to China.”
