Nvidia, AMD Agree to 15% Export Levy on China AI Chips

Nvidia (NVDA, Financials) and Advanced Micro Devices (AMD, Financials) will give the U.S. government 15% of revenue from certain AI chip sales to China in return for export licenses, the White House said Tuesday. Warning! GuruFocus has detected 5 Warning Signs with NVDA. The agreements cover Nvidia's China-specific H20 chip and AMD's equivalent processors, designed to meet U.S. export limits. President Donald Trump negotiated the deals, which could be extended to other firms. Trade lawyers say the plan may violate federal rules banning export taxes and limiting licensing fees, setting up potential legal fights. Nvidia's H20 had been projected to bring in over $8 billion in quarterly sales before the new restrictions. Investors will be watching whether Chinese chipmakers' push to replace U.S. tech eats into demand. This article first appeared on GuruFocus.

Cohere Scores $500 Million as IPO Talk Heats Up

Cohere just pulled in another $500 million, pushing its valuation to $6.8 billion as the Canadian AI startup inches closer to what's looking like an inevitable IPO. The round was led by Radical Ventures and Inovia Capital, with heavy backing from AMD Ventures (NASDAQ:AMD), NVIDIA (NASDAQ:NVDA), PSP Investments, Salesforce Ventures (CRM) and a handful of new investors. Warning! GuruFocus has detected 5 Warning Signs with NVDA. The fresh cash will go toward ramping up its agentic AI tools software built to make businesses and governments more efficient by automating repetitive work. We're at a pivotal moment, CEO Aidan Gomez said, adding that the new funding sets the stage for the company's next phase of growth. Cohere's also bringing in serious muscle for that next chapter. Joelle Pineau, former VP of AI Research at Meta and a McGill University professor, joins as Chief AI Officer. Francois Chadwick, Uber's (UBER) ex-CFO during its IPO push, takes over as finance chief. Both bring the kind of big-league experience that could help Cohere make the leap to the public markets. For investors, the mix of fresh capital, a stronger exec team, and fast-rising valuation sends a clear message: Cohere's gearing up to play in the AI big leagues.

Senators Demand Probe Into Meta Over AI 'Flirt' Policy With Minors

Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:META) is in hot water again this time over a report claiming its internal AI guidelines once allowed chatbots to flirt or engage in romantic roleplay with children. That revelation has set off alarm bells in Washington. Warning! GuruFocus has detected 6 Warning Sign with META. Two Republican senators Josh Hawley from Missouri and Marsha Blackburn from Tennessee are leading the charge for a congressional investigation. Hawley slammed Meta on X, saying the company only reversed the policy after it got caught. Blackburn called the situation absolutely disgusting and used the moment to push for the Kids Online Safety Act (KOSA), which would require social platforms to design products with minors' safety in mind. Meta isn't denying the documents existed, but it's pushing back on the interpretation. A company spokesperson told Seeking Alpha the examples in question were erroneous internal notes, inconsistent with its actual policies and have since been removed. The company insists its official rules clearly ban any sexualized content involving minors. The report also claimed the AI could generate false medical information and even assist in creating racist arguments. That's sparked bipartisan outrage. Democratic Senators Ron Wyden and Peter Welch called the guidelines deeply disturbing and warned that AI needs stronger guardrails, especially when kids are involved. Right now, there's no federal law regulating AI in this way, though some states have passed their own bans on using AI to create child sexual abuse material. Lawmakers from both parties say it's time to change that before technology gets too far ahead of the rules meant to protect people. This article first appeared on GuruFocus.
