President Donald Trump announced that Nvidia has received White House approval to export its H200 AI GPU chips to "approved customers" in China and other nations. The deal includes a 25 percent U.S. cut of sales, higher than the 15 percent cut previously demanded. The H200 chips are an upgrade to the scaled‑down H20 models already allowed for export, though they remain less powerful than Nvidia's flagship Blackwell GPUs. Trump framed the policy as a boost for American jobs, manufacturing, and taxpayers, while noting that Nvidia’s U.S. customers are already moving forward with Blackwell chips. Senators have urged continued restrictions on China’s access to the most advanced AI chips. Ler mais

Lawmakers have introduced the Secure and Feasible Exports (SAFE) Chips Act, which would prohibit such exports for up to 30 months. Ler mais
