Nvidia's CEO Jensen Huang indicated on the 23rd that even if the Trump administration imposes strict export controls on cutting-edge computing products, global cooperation in technology will continue.
During his first term, President Trump imposed restrictions on the sale of US technology to china citing national security, a policy that has continued under the Biden administration. As a result of these regulations, Nvidia, a global manufacturer of semiconductors used for artificial intelligence (ai) applications, was forced to reassess its product lineup in china.
Mr. Huang pointed out in hong kong to the broadcasting that "Global cooperation, open science beyond the barriers of mathematics and science, has been around for a long time. It is the foundation of social development and scientific progress." He added, "Such cooperation is likely to continue. We do not know what will happen under the new administration, but we will adhere to both laws and policies, maintain a balance, advance technology, and continue to support and provide services to customers worldwide."
Kimihiko : Recently, news has reported that NVIDIA's AI GPUs are being smuggled from Singapore to China. Despite the export restrictions from the United States, these chips are flowing into China through underground networks. For instance, there was a case where a Chinese student brought NVIDIA's A100 GPU from Singapore to China. Additionally, a company based in Hong Kong called PC Partner is reported to be planning to relocate its headquarters to Singapore and move its production base to Indonesia in order to avoid U.S. sanctions.
