Trump gives green light to NVIDIA's H200 AI chip exports to China
Donald Trump has approved NVIDIA's export of its powerful H200 AI chips to China, with each sale including a fee for the US government.
This move follows a recent technology truce between the US and China and could also impact rivals like AMD and Intel.
NVIDIA's stock even got a small boost after the news.
What's the catch?
Trump claimed President Xi Jinping responded positively to the decision, some in Washington are worried it could help boost China's military tech.
Critics like Senator Elizabeth Warren have flagged national security concerns since the H200 is even more advanced than previous chips.
Still, experts think Chinese companies will jump at the chance to get these chips, showing just how tricky balancing tech leadership and global politics can be.
