The administration of US President Joe Biden plans to introduce a new set of restrictions aimed at cutting off China’s access to AI chips. Writes about it The New York Times.
According to the sources of the publication, the main efforts of the government are aimed at preventing the Chinese military from accessing technologies related to high-precision computing and artificial intelligence.
As of today, they include notification letters to chip and tool manufacturers reporting restrictions. The administration plans to expand the range of policies, including export controls, presidential executive orders, and a “foreign direct product rule.”
The interlocutor of the publication claims that the US government plans to ban Chinese enterprises, government research laboratories and others from buying American-made technology.
In addition to chips, the administration is considering blocking the export of certain types of memory. Among the technologies being considered are high-bandwidth storage devices used to train large AI models. At the moment, it is not known whether the new list will include restrictions on the sale of memory.
According to media reports, the document will be presented within a week.
The US Department of Commerce declined to comment. The White House also did not respond to requests from reporters.
Recall that in August, Nvidia and AMD received an order from the US Department of Commerce prohibiting the export of AI chips to China and Russia.
That same month, industry experts said that US government restrictions would only speed up the development of local companies.
