„The U.S. House of Representative on Wednesday rejected a new measure that would require suppliers of popular AI GPUs — such as AMD or Nvidia — to prioritize shipments of advanced processors to domestic companies over adversary nations like China. The proposal was sidelined after Nvidia’s chief executive met President Trump and U.S. lawmakers on Wednesday.
The sidelined proposal — known as the GAIN AI Act — would have mandated suppliers like AMD or Nvidia to prioritize American customers ahead of buyers in China and other arms-restricted countries. The mechanism was straightforward: to get an export license to ship a batch of advanced products to China or other countries, Nvidia and AMD would need to confirm the following:
* U.S. customers did not want those products.
* There was no backlog of pending U.S. orders.
* The export would not cause shipment delays to domestic customers.
* The shipment would not harm American companies operating in other countries.“
Amazing how the Grifter-in-Chief manages to surpass his previous corruption levels every time. Tough on China? Sure, unless he can make a quick buck.
I guess giving millions to get his ballroom built really paid off. So dystopian but that’s the world we’re living in so it’s not surprising.
