In order to prevent advanced technologies from falling into the hands of China and Russia, US President Biden announced on the eve of his resignation that he planned to impose a new round of restrictions on the export of AI chips from companies such as NVIDIA and AMD. Ensure that AI development is concentrated in countries friendly to the United States.

Huang Renxun cooperates with Toyota " Building the AV Industry": Autonomous driving output will reach trillions of dollars) According to Bloomberg, people familiar with the matter revealed that the Biden administration hopes to restrict the sales of AI chips used in data centers at the national and corporate levels, aiming to focus AI research and development on Friendly countries and allowing companies around the world to adopt U.S. standards, new regulations may be released as early as Friday and will impose level three restrictions on chip trade. The first level applies to a few allies and will enjoy the most lenient treatment and can use American chips without restriction. The second level applies to most countries in the world and will face restrictions on the total AI computing power. The third level is the most stringent and mainly targets China and Russia. and other countries, semiconductor imports will essentially be blocked. There will be three levels of restrictions on AI chips. According to sources, the first level established in the new regulations is the loosest. It includes 18 allied countries including the United States, Germany, the Netherlands, Japan, South Korea and Taiwan, and can obtain American chips without restrictions. Companies in these places can apply for full U.S. government permission to ship chips to most countries. The premise is that the company's computing power cannot exceed 25% of its total computing power located outside the first-level countries, and the computing power located in any second-level country cannot exceed 7% of its total computing power. The company must also comply with the U.S. government's security requirements. Companies headquartered in the United States are required to apply for "Verified End User" (VEU) certification to keep at least half of their computing power in the United States. The broader goal of these regulations is to ensure that the United States and its allies always have more computing power than the rest of the world. computing power. Most countries around the world fall into the second level of restrictions, which mainly regulate the maximum computing power that a country can use. There is an upper limit of 50,000 GPUs between 2025 and 2027. However, in order to encourage enterprises to cooperate with the US government and adopt US AI standards, Individual companies can apply for VEU certification to obtain higher quotas, and the quota can increase over time. As for the third level, the strictest restrictions will be implemented, covering China, Macau and all countries that have implemented arms embargoes with the United States, a total of about 24 countries, and US AI chips will be widely prohibited from being shipped to data centers in these regions. However, if companies headquartered in third-level countries agree to comply with a set of security requirements and human rights standards of the US government, they can bypass their country's restrictions and significantly increase their limits. The purpose of VEU certification is to establish a group of trusted entities that allow It develops and deploys AI in global security environments. Huida is opposed to the above-mentioned plan. Huida expressed its opposition to the proposal in a statement, saying that the last-minute restrictions on export rules for most parts of the world would be a major change in policy and would not reduce the risk of abuse. , will also threaten economic growth and the leadership of the United States. The global interest in accelerated computing for daily applications should be a huge opportunity for the United States to nurture, promote the economy and increase employment opportunities.
