The US Department of US (doj) she said Tuesday that two Chinese national were arrested for their immediate presumption in illegal delivery “of millions of dollars” worth the major to China.

I doj said Chuan Genng and Shiwei yang were arrested on the August of the August of Export Control, a Felon that takes a 20-year-old

GENG and Yang are accused of “important technicians” sensitive “, including GPU, to China by the United States through his / her alx company.

The Doj didn’t call Alx Solutions was unscrambled, but telling a chip is “Chip punched in the market” and is “disablingly disabled for AI” applications. That the description makes the chips are smuggled were made by Nvidia. A Report by Reuters Specifically called the GPUS H100 of Nvidia as chips be shipped.

A doj export documents has found that alx solutions sent and other technology for shipping and shipping, but of payments in Hong Kong in return. The Department finds communication recounts as to ship to the skill to maliary to go in the specific mode of the US restrictions.

Trump administration administration recently Actions plan AI Braver the importance of having strong restrictions of export, but it was light on details.

A single potential solution to curb chip smuggling that has been suggested by the American government in recent days is implement tracking technology in chips To help catch smuggling, but the chipamai are quite opposed to such a move.

In a Blog post on TuesdayNvidia said his gpuses do not include switches or backdors, and discussed that build up in tools would only compromise security.

“Nvidia designed over 30 years old. Ippedding Backduors in Chips would be a gift to the ilic players.” Undermix the global influxtructure and trust in the US Technology. The right establish the following require companion approaching vulnerability – do not create “”

“It’s no quotation sound. It is an overreaction that irreparable injury damage the economical interests of America and Nvidia, Nvidia wrote.

Nvidia did not prompt promptly and prompts for an additional comment.
