Don’t Go Wobbly on China

the Trump administration has just signaled a troubling shift in its export control posture by permitting Nvidia to sell certain high-performance artificial intelligence (AI) chips—including the company’s advanced H200 series processors—to China. This decision severely reduces the United States’ comparative computing and semiconductor advantage over China, thereby abetting the boosting of China’s military and surveillance capabilities at a time of heightened and harrowing great power competition. There is no economic justification for such a strategic empowerment of our preeminent adversary. These chips are the engines that drive modern AI. Allowing their sale to China, no matter the regulatory strings attached, is senseless.
