Nvidia Fires Back at Biden's AI Chip Export Restrictions

The outgoing Biden administration unveiled a final rule on AI diffusion, restricting exports of AI chips to most countries while granting exemptions to key allies. Nvidia vehemently criticized the move, arguing it will harm US technological leadership and potentially evaporate 80% of the GPU market. The company claims the rule is overly restrictive, lacks proper legislative review, and stifles innovation. While framed as an 'anti-China' measure, Nvidia contends it will control technology globally, impacting even widely available consumer hardware.
