Nvidia backs down from Biden admin’s AI order

Tech giant Nvidia is backing away from a new executive order issued by the Biden administration that seeks to block it Artificial Intelligence (AI) To prevent technologies developed in the United States from falling into the hands of hostile countries.

the The white house The United States announced a new AI rule on Monday, which seeks to encourage the “diffusion” of American-made AI technologies to allied nations while placing limits on the sale of advanced chips to foreign countries that could pose a national security risk.

“This policy will help build a trusted technology ecosystem around the world and allow us to protect against national security risks associated with artificial intelligence, while ensuring that controls do not stifle American technology innovation or leadership,” Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo said. “Managing these very real national security risks requires taking into account the sophistication of artificial intelligence technology, the capabilities of our adversaries, and the desire of our allies to share in the benefits of this technology.”

Nvidia’s vice president of government affairs, Ned Finkel, wrote in a post on the company’s website that the Biden administration’s action puts global progress in AI at risk, and said the “unprecedented and misguided” AI deployment rule threatens to derail innovation and economic growth. All over the world.”

“This sweeping overreach would impose bureaucratic control over how America’s leading semiconductors, computers, systems, and even software are designed and marketed globally. By attempting to manipulate market outcomes and stifle competition — the lifeblood of innovation — the Biden administration’s new rule threatens to dissipate,” Finkel wrote. “America’s hard-won technological advantage.”

He added that while the base “is covered with a cover An “anti-China” measure.These rules will do nothing to enhance the security of the United States. The new rules will control technology worldwide, including technology already widely available in gaming PCs and consumer devices.

“Although the rule is unenforceable for 120 days, it actually undermines US interests. Trump administration “We have proven that America wins by innovating and competing and by sharing our technologies with the world — not by retreating behind a wall of government overreach,” Finkel wrote. “We look forward to returning to policies that strengthen American leadership, support our economy, and maintain our competitive advantage in AI and beyond.”

Biden White House announces ‘final rule’ on AI chip exports ahead of Trump handover, industry rebound charts

the The Biden administration’s AI deployment rule Creates an exception for exports of advanced AI chips to 18 major U.S. allies and partners that have technology protection systems consistent with U.S. national security and foreign policy interests. The exception allows them to carry out seamless large-scale purchases.

Orders for chips with collective computing power of approximately 1,700 advanced GPUs do not require a license and do not count toward the national chip cap — most chip orders fall into this category, according to the White House.

The rule provides “globally certified end-user” status to entities that meet security and trust standards and are headquartered in close U.S. allied countries, allowing them to place up to 7% of their global AI computing capacity offshore. It also creates a “National Certified End User” designation for entities headquartered anywhere that is not a country of concern to access up to 320,000 advanced GPUs over two years.
