Nvidia is told by American regulators to stop selling its top AI processors to China

Nvidia Corp (NVDA.O), a company that designs computer chips, claimed on Wednesday that U.S. officials had instructed it to cease exporting two of the best computing chips for artificial intelligence work to China. This could severely limit Chinese companies' ability to perform advanced tasks like image recognition and hurt Nvidia's business in China.

After hours, shares of Nvidia dropped 6.6%. The business claimed the prohibition, which applies to its A100 and H100 processors made to accelerate machine learning operations, could obstruct the development of the H100, the company's flagship chip unveiled this year by Nvidia.

Netizens' Comments;

1. That's a dumb move for the US. You know damn well they are only giving chance for Chinese manufacturers to dominate their Markets.
2. So china will make their own.
3. "It is not China who will suffer, Nvidia and US will suffer
4. China is already capable of making its own GPU'S 😄😄"
5. China has been spending vast sums of money on improving its chips for some time now. It was recently revealed that many of the companies didn’t actually develop the chips and just kept the cash. In China, there are large organizations that copy and sell imitations of any new invention. This makes research and development not very profitable in China. Suddenly wanting advanced chips more will not resolve this problem.
6. Fighting 8.5% inflation (more like 35%) with a 1% Fed funds interest rate is like stopping a forest fire with a bucket of water. Folks prepare accordingly. Invest other not depend on the government for funds
7. "The United States should take more measures against China
8. This will help China develop its technology."
9. the USA doesn't care about people and World ..they care only about dirty politics
10. Fighting 8.5% inflation (more like 35%) with a 1% Fed funds interest rate is like stopping a forest fire with a bucket of water. Folks prepare accordingly. Invest other not depend on the government for funds
11. The US can even stop their BS. Period!
12. The US government is treating advanced chips as if they were military technology, something to be denied to adversaries. They may be correct.
13. Bigg office“ Nvidia ” in Pune( Yarwada)😊
14. Western Dictatorship noice 👍
15. China stick to kirin chip lol 😂
16. no gaming in China from now on.
17. good decision
18. Taiwan must do the same thing as China.
19. Now you understand that 🇺🇸 the USA is the wrong place to bet investments in large corporations....they are prone to political dictates.
20. USA and Nato are to blame stop abusing power murderers and lies
21. china ordering apple and gm to stop producing in china.
22. Say all you’ll America made china. They should’ve been doing it 10 years ago!! but these fun Leaders,! all they care about is their legacy not the country as a whole are people that is suffering
23. Bruh and I were just getting excited about the 4000 series… it’s gonna be hella expensive.
24. Only communist/socialist countries tell a company what to do.
25. Lol, first check who is the founder and CEO of Nvidia and then decide how effective these orders will be.
26. "😱😱😱 40 - 0, then game 1 - 0, then opponent said somehow allergic to gravity and game over…
27. it’s only the 1st of September! my goodness 🌈🌈🌈"
28. China tries everything to become the KING OF THE ASIA SEA AND TO BECOME KING TO CONTROL THE CHIPS ERA IN THE FUTURE.  But it was not as easy as China think. China wins the Democracy Countries first before China win the Chips war3.
29. Let us stop buying CHINESE PRODUCTS.
30. Does china still needs Nvidia tsmc Samsung? they have already showoff smic can build a 5nm chip and 128GB ram phone by 2020.😂
31. And Here we go...
32. Boycott China Russia North Korea Pakistan Taliban and their allies. China started our decade of global catastrophe.
33. US get out from EAST..............
34. That's what you get if you take money from the U.S you don't have a say in you're own company.
35. the USA is very fear of China
36. "Then China will make their own AI CHIPS to compete.
37. the US never learns..how many times.. how many times.."
38. there will be two outcomes. china stole that teach because they have no option to survive and other countries that are relying on china for cheap products will face a cost of living crisis.
39. thanks us... after all it did... any bans from us are proven to make china more self-dependent.
40. it's about time! Fckn NVIDIA overpricing their units by thousands of dollars!
41. Sell them nothing. Don't arm your enemy.
42. The US is scrambling to hurt China but all they are accomplishing is hurting Nvidia and their own companies. China is vastly capable of developing similar or better chips than Nvidia and the US gave them a reason to do it. Looks like the US is losing its grip
43. They going to print some money for subsidised  Nvidia now,!!! Why the world isn't banned this cancerous government of 🇺🇸...that's what they are...Cancer desires
44. The US will do the same to India one day, you cannot out-compete them without them trying to strangle you. India BeWare
45. So much for the free economy of the west. You just sanction your competitors
46. You know China will make a similar chip in the future and these companies will probably lose a lot of money and some may not survive who is the biggest manufacturing country
47. Tragically,  the world faces the greatest global totalitarian communist threat since the rise of Hitler !!!   😡 😡 😡
48. c4f6 for advanced lithography processes for chip production comes from Russia
49. So china just stop all Nvidia products to china, as easy as that n collapsed Nvidia n employ their engineers.
50. Faceslap! Most of the chips come from Asia. If China responds with the same kind of measures the economy will certainly not be in trouble(sarcasm). If you talk about asking for trouble...
51. I guess it's time to short Nvidia stock.
52. the US boasts about freedom as if they’re champions of the free world 😂 where has their freedom gone now, directly banning Nvidia from a major chunk of the market? And the hilarious part is, this will only end up backfiring because China has already almost caught up to meet western chip design. Funny to watch the US squirm as they show their hypocritical nature out to the world now. 😂
53. Ask Palki what she thinks of the new Russian tanks India is buying!
54. They just steal it anyway
55. you lie
56. don't be fooled, the US govt also controls their corporations
57. Oh no
58. These Chinese are great copycats, they'll copy anything ... make their chips!
59. It will only backfire on the US...Just like the Russian sanctions. Countries like China and Russia produce their chips for their defence industry. Hence the chips eco-system is already there. By so doing, the US will only deprive its own companies of the biggest chips market.
60. Nooooooooooo Stop this, please
61. Last year 1.64 lakh persons died by suicide, an increase of 7.2% from 2020.  Nearly 42004 daily wage earners died by suicide. They were not getting work due to the economic crisis in India.
62. How jealousy is killing everyone.
63. U.S knows China ever since and so have China and U.S when it comes to businesses. Especially the inventories system for exports and imports. It knows consumer protection measures as well as quality and quantity and output according to brands specifics/features. BRICS and BREXIT attest to exchange and trade practices that are important amongst countries, where they all adhered/agreed/complied. It answers the concerns and it provides the options of reconciled reports amongst its businesses domestically and overseas.

Thank you.
64. US IS THE BULLY
65. A very good move by the US govt
66. No need to sell to China when RTX4000 is being sold for zillion dollars in the US market!
67. I feel nuclear war will happen, and the USA want it to happen
68. Good 👏 We don't need to be financing china's concentration camps.
69. Why? China already has stolen all of their intellectual properties and making its chips.
70. WION, please hire reporters that can speak English!
71. So china will create a better Chip haha
72. I'm so happy that I don't have children because I don't want to see them suffering in poverty or suffering in 3 world wars 😢😢😢 Because I can smell the desire of the Dead from our Leaders!!!!
73. Makes it even more important for China to take over Taiwan now.  Seems like the US is pushing China into war.
74. Glad I got my rtx3080 ftw a year ago.
75. Why they didn’t do it much earlier? Like years ago?
76. Very good US is producing its competitors. It will benefit China in the end.
77. Malaysian Flight 320

79. people don't understand the implications of A. I, it makes the Manhattan project look like child's play.

89. China already purchased EUT lithography machines from AMSL, they can manufacture their chips
90. well...save your money kids. Nvidia was already asking for a foot and a hand. now they will ask for a whole leg and arm.
91. Ohhhhh ………shiiiiiii……………!!!
92. Ffs bring the value of the stocks down. I already invested a lot in NVIDIA shares
93. "American company Nvidia is based in Silicon Valley, California USA ... it was founded by a Chinese American engineer .... they do have a manufacturing plant in China...
94. China is currently producing advanced chips domestically at least as good and as fast as Nvidia chips .... so I think this round of sanction only hurts Nvidia's business ....😂"
95. GOOD. MORE TO THE PHILIPPINES, LESS TO MAINLAND CHINA. GOOD!!!
96. "January 5, 2022, President  of Taiwan: "Taiwan's democracy and freedom must win." Taiwan is one country and not part of China. 台湾是一个国家，不是中国的一部分。台湾是一个国家，不属于中国。🇯🇵🇹🇼🇺🇦🇱🇹🇺🇸🇯🇵
97. The Chinese government has no diplomatic options anymore.  US military officials believe China will invade Taiwan by 2027.  It can be assumed that Japan will also have a military clash with China in five years.🇯🇵🇺🇦🇹🇼🇱🇹🇺🇸🇯🇵
98. AUKUS's (Australia, UK, US) strategy to produce nuclear submarines for Australia can integrate Taiwan into the larger Indo-Pacific Union.  Together also with Japan strategically, we provide cooperation on defence capabilities.🇯🇵🇬🇧🇳🇿🇺🇸"
99. So by the same measure Putin, can tell Gazprom to stop gas sales to Europe? 🤔
100. "Your video title is misleading and confusing 'US orders Nvidia to stop chip sales in China'  .... Nividia has been manufacturing chips in China for a long time ... it's just too expensive to make those chips in the US... 
101. I think the U.S. government just wants Nvidia to close up shops in China and go home ...😂"
102. Hahahaha! What a joke!
103. Boooooo!
104. That's why Pelosi sold
105. China will grow in chip development, and America will struggle it's a fact
106. Also, sanction Apple
107. "China will still get their chips. Only through nine of dozens of brokers. It’s like Biden is trying his best to ruin America 🇺🇸.
108. Citizens need to make their stand, surely nobody agrees with all the stupid things he’s been doing and losing out on every single one."
109. To understand the level of corruption going on within the US Administration, you need to search for Paul Pelosi Nvidia. That will all make sense after a few clicks.
110. Forcing China to develop its system. Not a good idea. Soon everything will backfire on the US. When a new technology comes around, the US will again be begging for the new technology.
